What is a PCC?

A Police Clearance Certificate (PCC), known also as ‘Good Conduct Certificate’ is a proof of the person’s criminal record or the lack of it in the state in which he/she resides. In the UAE, the certificate is issued by police departments across the UAE and it indicates that the person is not accused or does not have any criminal precedents.

How to apply?

The PCC is available for applicants who are currently residing in the UAE, or those who are no longer UAE residents.
