How can I get it if I’m in the UK when applying for jobs?
You have to be in Pakistan to apply for police clearance.
You can go to your country’s embassy while in u.k and have an attorney letter issued and stamped on your blood related relative name(father,brother)And he/She can apply on your behalf..you would need his/her CNIC and passport copy,your NICOP and passport and 3pics..
thanks for all the details. Does the dependent also require the police clearance certificate?
I am not sure about that. I’m sorry! But if you post on the Facebook groups, someone will be able to guide you there.
Dependant more than 18 needs to have PCC.
Salam,,
Sir,is the certificate issued from the relevant district sufficient or we have to go for the federal one???
Either one of them is sufficient.
hi,
If a person has switched cities/districts in Pakistan, does he/she need to get police clearance from all the cities or just one will do???
Salaam sir. So a protector stamp, police clearance and NICOP all of this should be done after I have recieved my passport issued with tier 2 visa Insha Allah?
Police clearance and NICOP can be done before you get the visa.
Thank you sir. Jazak Allah.
Salaam Dr. Naseer.
My police clearance certificate is for last 11 years. Insha Allah it’s enough, yes?
If I have a BRP card now, do I still require the police clearance?
You mean if you are applying for Tier 2 visa extension? No, you do not.
