Police Clearance Certificate

Greetings,

My police clearance certificate from the home country states that I have no criminal record to date. However, I stayed in Saudi Arabia for two years. Is this ok?

Was the stay in Saudi Arabia within the last 10 years?

What is your Home Country? What is your age?

If the stay was in the last 10 years (after you were 18 years of age) then you will need a PCC from Saudi also.

All the Best!

Hi, I'm getting the PCC from Saudi Arabia as well.
Here are the dates since I turned 18.

Pakistan 2010 to 2017
Saudi Arabia 2017 to 2018.

However, my PCC from Pakistan says 2010 to date there is no criminal record. Would this be acceptable?

Yes that’s how it is supposed to be. Even though u r not living in Pakistan but still PCC has to be dated till the date when u ordered. Moreover it should cover the period from 2008. I wonder why the police department didn’t make it from DOB

I was told by someone that Saudi PCC is not required however it's always good to be on the safe side. I stayed in Saudi for two years as well. Can you guide the procedure for Saudi PCC please

If you are not a citizen of Saudi Arabia, and are not a current resident, you cannot get a PCC, so it is not required. You do have upload a LOE in lieu of the PCC -

"If you do not have current legal residence status in Saudi Arabia, you are not required to provide a Saudi Arabian police certificate. If you are asked for a police certificate from Saudi Arabia, write: “I cannot provide a police certificate for the time I spent in Saudi Arabia because certificates are only available to people who have current legal residence status.”

I've requested them to issue a new one. In my current residence, I've been living since 2008 so I asked them to provide since 2008. Though I turned 18 in 2010.

You can request for the PCC over Dubai police's website. All you need is your Emirates ID and have to pay a fee of AED 220.
After payment, visit the nearest police station with the confirmation email. You will receive the PPC within 1-2 days after your visit to the police station.

Since the PCC is generated electronically and can be verified by IRCC over the website itself, there is no need to get it stamped.

Thanks, I was asking for Lahore and Karachi actually. Anyways, it's good to know about UAE as well since I'll need to get PCC for here. Is it more prudent to get PCC from Abu Dhabi since my residence visa is for this city? Secondly, how do you get them to mention exact entry dates in UAE to adhere to CIC procedure?

I think the process will be similar in Abu Dabhi as well. The PCC I got from Dubai police didn't have the dates on it (that's the standard format they have), although it had the validity of 3 months until which the PCC was valid.
