Complete guide: Thai Police Clearance Certificate

What type of PCC does Vietnam require?

Vietnam requires MFA legalization followed by attestation at the สถานทูตเวียดนาม. Every certificate we ship carries the issuing authority's full stamp and signature, certified translation by an MFA-recognized translator, MFA consular legalization, and สถานทูตเวียดนาม attestation when required.

Vietnam visas commonly requiring PCC

Work Permit. 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 Vietnam

(1) Sign and have the PoA legalized at the Thai consular post in Vietnam. (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 + สถานทูตเวียดนาม attestation. (5) DHL/FedEx ships back to Vietnam in 7–15 days — total 15–30 days from dispatch.

Total cost shipping to Vietnam

Bundled cost shipping to Vietnam ranges THB 6,000–15,000 depending on number of copies, translation language, and legalization level (MFA only vs. สถานทูตเวียดนาม attestation). Postage ~ THB 2,000. Request a precise bundled quote anytime.

How to apply for a Thai Police Clearance Certificate

CRD government fees are THB 100 for the Thai-language certificate and THB 200 for the English version. Standard processing 7–15 business days; express 3–5 days. Our service fee covers document running, off-site fingerprinting, coordination, translation, MFA legalization, and diplomatic mission attestation — bundled from THB 4,000 depending on destination country and number of copies.

Documents you need to prepare before filing

The police PCC alone is valid only inside Thailand. To use it overseas, two more steps are required: (1) translation by an MFA-recognized translator, and (2) consular legalization at the Department of Consular Affairs (MFA), then optionally consular post attestation. This is Thailand's legalization chain — Thailand has not joined the Hague Apostille Convention 1961, so true apostille is not available.

Government fees and standard turnaround times

An authentic certificate carries the Garuda emblem, the Royal Thai Police logo, the applicant's name in Thai and English, national ID number, date of birth, nationality, purpose of application, the result (clear / not clear with detail), the signature of the Commander of the CRD, and the office's blue seal. The reference number can be verified with the CRD.

Difference between the police PCC and MFA / embassy legalization

Translation must be done by a translator registered with the MFA Department of Consular Affairs or otherwise recognized by them. The official rendering must mirror the original — dates, reference numbers, signatory name, and result. For Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, French, or Arabic, we offer in-house translation followed by MFA legalization.

What the certificate looks like and key fields to verify

Consular legalization happens at the MFA Department of Consular Affairs, Chaeng Wattana Road, or its regional branches. The fee is THB 200 per document for standard service (2 business days) or THB 400 for express (1 commercial day). Legalized documents carry the red MFA seal, the legalization officer's signature, and a reference number for verification.

Translating the PCC into English and the destination language

After MFA, the final step is destination-consulate attestation in Thailand. Each diplomatic mission has its own timing, fee, and rules — typically 3–10 business days. Some require online booking; we book and submit on your behalf where embassy rules allow.

Frequently asked questions (FAQ)

How far back does the police check go?
All registered criminal cases since legal adulthood.
If I changed my name, do I declare the old one?
Yes — list every former name on the form and attach all name-change certificates so the CRD can search completely.
How long is the PCC valid?
Usually 3-6 months from the issue date. Strict embassies (US, Canada, UK) enforce 3 months; Germany, Spain accept 6.
Can I request the PCC of a deceased person?
Yes for legal need (estate, cold cases). The requester must be a legal heir and supply the death certificate plus proof of heirship.
Can I get a PCC for a minor child?
Children under 14 usually don't need one. Some destinations (US, Canada) require it from age 16. Parental consent + the child attending the fingerprint scan in person.
How long does the Thai Police Clearance take?
Standard 7–15 business days at the CRD, plus 2–10 days for MFA and diplomatic mission — total 10–25 days. Same-day express is available case-by-case.

THB 100 for the Thai version, THB 200 for the English version. MFA legalization is THB 200 (standard) or THB 400 (express) per document.

Yes, with a Power of Attorney bearing a THB 30 stamp duty and ID copies of both parties. The applicant must still attend the fingerprinting once.
