If you require a Saudi Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) for immigration, employment or official purposes, CLS can assist with the preparation and legalisation requirements involved in the application process.
For applicants outside Saudi Arabia, obtaining a Saudi Police Clearance Certificate generally requires an Ink Fingerprint Certificate to be prepared, authenticated and legalised before it can be submitted to the relevant authority.
CLS assists with the legalisation of Australian Ink Fingerprint Certificates, including document preparation, authentication and relevant legalisation steps.
Once the fingerprint certificate legalisation is completed, the applicant is required to submit the application through the Embassy or Consulate of their country of nationality in Saudi Arabia for further processing.
Last reviewed: June 2026. Requirements and procedures may vary depending on the applicant's nationality, previous residency status in Saudi Arabia and current Saudi authority requirements.
What Is Required for a Saudi Police Clearance Certificate?
A Saudi Police Clearance Certificate is an official document issued by Saudi authorities confirming an individual's criminal record status in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
For applicants residing outside Saudi Arabia, the process commonly involves obtaining an Ink Fingerprint Certificate, which must be properly authenticated and legalised before it can be submitted for Saudi PCC processing.
The legalised Ink Fingerprint Certificate is then submitted by the applicant through their country's embassy or consulate in Saudi Arabia according to the applicable requirements.
