Complete guide: Thai Police Clearance Certificate

What type of PCC does Japan require?

Japan requires MFA legalization followed by attestation at the สถานทูตญี่ปุ่น. Every certificate we ship carries the issuing authority's full stamp and signature, certified translation by an MFA-recognized translator, MFA consular legalization, and สถานทูตญี่ปุ่น attestation when required.

Japan visas commonly requiring PCC

Highly Skilled, Spouse of Japanese. All long-stay visas above require a PCC from every country where the applicant lived for 6–12 months or more during the past 5–10 years. Our finished certificate is ready to file immediately after the legalization chain is complete.

Workflow for clients already in Japan

(1) Sign and have the PoA legalized at the Thai diplomatic mission in Japan. (2) Ship originals and copies to our Thailand team. (3) We process the criminal records check, fingerprinting via FBI FD-258 or the Thai consular post. (4) Translation + MFA legalization + สถานทูตญี่ปุ่น attestation. (5) DHL/FedEx ships back to Japan in 7–15 days — total 15–30 days from dispatch.

Total cost shipping to Japan

Bundled cost shipping to Japan ranges THB 6,000–15,000 depending on number of copies, translation language, and legalization level (MFA only vs. สถานทูตญี่ปุ่น attestation). Postage ~ THB 2,200. Request a precise bundled quote anytime.

PCC for foreign nationals living in Thailand

Required documents: original Thai national ID card, two copies of the ID, two copies of the house registration, original passport plus copies of the photo page and entry/exit stamps, every name-change certificate (if any), marriage/divorce certificate (if any), the completed application form, an invitation or purpose letter from the destination authority (consulate, employer, school), and — for representation — a Power of Attorney with a THB 30 stamp duty plus the representative's ID copy.

Requesting a PCC from overseas using a Power of Attorney

CRD government fees are THB 100 for the Thai-language certificate and THB 200 for the English version. Standard processing 7–15 business days; express 3–5 days. Our service fee covers document running, off-site fingerprinting, coordination, translation, MFA legalization, and consulate attestation — bundled from THB 4,000 depending on destination country and number of copies.

Mobile live-scan fingerprinting at home or office

The police PCC alone is valid only inside Thailand. To use it overseas, two more steps are required: (1) translation by an MFA-recognized translator, and (2) consular legalization at the Department of Consular Affairs (MFA), then optionally diplomatic mission attestation. This is Thailand's legalization chain — Thailand has not joined the Hague Apostille Convention 1961, so true document attestation is not available.

1-day express PCC for visa-deadline cases

An authentic certificate carries the Garuda emblem, the Royal Thai Police logo, the applicant's name in Thai and English, national ID number, date of birth, nationality, purpose of application, the result (clear / not clear with detail), the signature of the Commander of the CRD, and the office's blue seal. The reference number can be verified with the CRD.

PCC for international adoption proceedings

Translation must be done by a translator registered with the MFA Department of Consular Affairs or otherwise recognized by them. The certified translation must mirror the original — dates, reference numbers, signatory name, and result. For Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, French, or Arabic, we offer in-house translation followed by MFA legalization.

PCC for employment in Five Eyes countries (US/UK/CA/AU/NZ)

Consular legalization happens at the MFA Department of Consular Affairs, Chaeng Wattana Road, or its regional branches. The fee is THB 200 per document for standard service (2 business days) or THB 400 for express (1 corporate day). Legalized documents carry the red MFA seal, the legalization officer's signature, and a reference number for verification.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

Why do I need MFA and embassy legalization?
Thailand is not part of the Hague Apostille Convention. Overseas use requires the chain Police → MFA → destination diplomatic mission.
What if my record is not clear?
Our lawyers review the case. Minor expired offences may qualify for record erasure under the Criminal Records Act.
Do I have to attend the CRD in person?
Only for the 10-finger scan. Everything else can be handled by our team.
Is off-site fingerprinting possible?
Yes, case-by-case for elderly, bedridden, or remote foreign clients. Extra fee applies and pre-arrangement is required.
Can a foreigner's Thai PCC be used in their home country?
Yes after MFA and home-country consular post legalization. Common for foreign PR or returning home.
How far back does the police check go?
All registered criminal cases since legal adulthood.
If I changed my name, do I declare the old one?
Yes — list every former name on the form and attach all name-change certificates so the CRD can search completely.
How long is the PCC valid?
Usually 3-6 months from the issue date. Strict embassies (US, Canada, UK) enforce 3 months; Germany, Spain accept 6.
Can I request the PCC of a deceased person?
Yes for legal need (estate, cold cases). The requester must be a legal heir and supply the death certificate plus proof of heirship.
Can I get a PCC for a minor child?
Children under 14 usually don't need one. Some destinations (US, Canada) require it from age 16. Parental consent + the child attending the fingerprint scan in person.
