What Is a Police Clearance Certificate?
A Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) confirms that an individual has no criminal record — or lists any convictions. It’s issued by the SAPS Criminal Record Centre (CRC) in Pretoria.We assist local and international clients with reliable processing and secure courier delivery for emigration, work, study, or residency abroad — end to end.
WHY YOU NEED A POLICE CLEARANCE CERTIFICATE
A Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) is an official SAPS document that confirms your criminal record status — whether you have any convictions or if your record is clean. You need it whenever you must prove your good conduct or identity for legal, employment, immigration, or international purposes.
Most people need a PCC for:
- Work abroad or international job applications
- Visa and immigration applications
- Studying overseas
