Complete guide: Thai Police Clearance Certificate
What type of PCC does Sweden require?
Sweden requires MFA legalization followed by attestation at the สถานทูตสวีเดน. Every certificate we ship carries the issuing authority's full stamp and signature, certified translation by an MFA-recognized translator, MFA consular legalization, and สถานทูตสวีเดน attestation when required.
Sweden visas commonly requiring PCC
Work Permit, Sambo. 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 Sweden
(1) Sign and have the PoA legalized at the Thai consular post in Sweden. (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 + สถานทูตสวีเดน attestation. (5) DHL/FedEx ships back to Sweden in 7–15 days — total 15–30 days from dispatch.
Total cost shipping to Sweden
Bundled cost shipping to Sweden ranges THB 6,000–15,000 depending on number of copies, translation language, and legalization level (MFA only vs. สถานทูตสวีเดน attestation). Postage ~ THB 2,500. Request a precise bundled quote anytime.
PCC for foreign nationals living in Thailand
If you cannot visit the CRD in person, you can authorize our team via a Power of Attorney with a THB 30 stamp duty and ID copies of both grantor and representative. We schedule one visit for the legally-required fingerprint scan, then handle every remaining step.
Requesting a PCC from overseas using a Power of Attorney
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.
Mobile live-scan fingerprinting at home or office
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.
1-day express PCC for visa-deadline cases
Thai citizens living overseas can use our service without flying home. Sign a Power of Attorney at a Thai consulate in your country of residence, send the originals and copies to our team, and we handle fingerprinting either through the Thai consulate (live-scan) or with the FBI FD-258 form, then ship the legalized PCC to your destination via DHL / FedEx.
PCC for international adoption proceedings
Mobile Live-Scan fingerprinting suits clients who can't visit the Criminal Records Division. We bring an FBI-grade digital fingerprint scanner to your home or office across Bangkok and surroundings within 4 hours of booking. Add-on THB 1,500-2,500.
PCC for employment in Five Eyes countries (US/UK/CA/AU/NZ)
1-day express for visa deadlines uses the CRD Premium channel — government fee jumps to THB 1,000 plus THB 5,000 express service. Start before 09:00 and the certificate is issued by 16:00 the same day; MFA + diplomatic mission stacks 2-3 business days on top.

Working steps
1. Confirm the purpose and receiving authority
The stated purpose determines the certificate format, the language of the translation and whether fingerprints are mandatory.
Handled by: Applicant + our team · Typical time: Same day
2. Fingerprinting
Attend the records division or an accepted station; overseas applicants use an embassy or local police form.
Handled by: Applicant · Typical time: 1 day
3. Lodge the application
The file is submitted to the Royal Thai Police and tracked until issue.
Handled by: Our team · Typical time: 2–4 weeks
4. Translate and legalise
Certified translation plus consular and embassy steps where the destination requires them.
Handled by: Our team · Typical time: 3–7 business days
Overall timeframe: Plan for roughly 3–6 weeks from first appointment to a fully translated and legalised certificate. The police processing stage is the longest and cannot be accelerated by an agent.
Documents to prepare first
Passport (original or clear bio-page copy)
Spelling must match the application exactly
Thai ID card and house registration, or visa/work permit pages
Thai nationals use ID and house registration; foreign nationals use immigration records
Fingerprint form
Taken at the records division, an accepted police station, or an embassy if you are overseas
Power of attorney if a representative files for you
Required where the applicant cannot attend in person
Photographs to the current specification
Recent, plain background, matching the application form
Advisory tips
Apply early — most destinations only accept certificates issued within the last 3–12 months
Use the same passport for the application and the later submission
Ask whether the authority wants the certificate sent directly by the issuing body
Why files get rejected
No agent can change the outcome of a records check or shorten the police queue
Name mismatches between passport and translation are the most common rejection cause
Skipping a legalisation step usually forces the entire chain to be repeated
