What type of PCC does Malta require?
Malta requires MFA legalization followed by attestation at the สถานทูตมอลตา. Every certificate we ship carries the issuing authority's full stamp and signature, certified translation by an MFA-recognized translator, MFA consular legalization, and สถานทูตมอลตา attestation when required.
Malta visas commonly requiring PCC
MPRP. 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.

Submitting to the destination embassy and processing times
Common rejection / delay reasons: unclear fingerprints requiring a re-scan, mismatched names across documents, missing supporting documents, the stated purpose not matching the destination form, address mismatches between house registration and passport, or an outstanding case requiring clarification. Pre-application consultation eliminates most of these risks.
How to appoint our team via Power of Attorney
Foreign nationals residing in Thailand can request a Thai PCC for their Thai Work Permit, LTR visa, Thai PR application, or use back home. The process mirrors Thai citizens but uses the original passport and Work Permit; the destination purpose must be clearly stated.
Common reasons applications get rejected or delayed
Thai citizens living overseas can use our service without flying home. Sign a Power of Attorney at a Thai embassy in your country of residence, send the originals and copies to our team, and we handle fingerprinting either through the Thai embassy (live-scan) or with the FBI FD-258 form, then ship the legalized PCC to your destination via DHL / FedEx.
