Skilled Worker, Family Reunion, Marriage. 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.
(1) Sign and have the PoA legalized at the Thai diplomatic mission in Germany. (2) Ship originals and copies to our Thailand team.

PCC for international adoption must explicitly cite 'For International Adoption' and include a letter from the adoption agency or destination diplomatic mission. Scrutiny is stricter than standard visa cases — sometimes including spouse and household background checks.
Five Eyes countries (US, UK, Canada, Australia, NZ) run their own background check and cross-reference any PCC from countries the applicant has lived in. Inconsistencies trigger immediate refusal of work permits or PR.
Applicants who changed names (marriage, divorce, religious conversion) must list every prior name on the application form and attach every change-of-name certificate. Otherwise the PCC only covers the current name and misses the historical periods.
Former military and police personnel get a PCC noting their rank and unit. Some embassies (Germany, France) request a Discharge Letter to confirm no military-court cases.
Cross-checking against an FBI Background Check (for US visas and employment) goes through an authorized channeler — Accurate Biometrics, Fieldprint, or via the US diplomatic mission in Thailand. We coordinate both sides, cutting 30 days down to 10-15.
For Hague Apostille Convention countries (113 jurisdictions) we package an Certificate authentication-ready PCC via MFA legalization. Thailand hasn't joined the Convention directly, but the MFA + consular post legalization combination is accepted as a functional substitute.
We are both the filing team and your advisers, with 15+ years of combined experience. We map the document route and confirm the realistic steps for your case before any work starts.
