Hi everyone! After reading some of the recent threads, can someone give me some guidance in getting a police certificate in Vietnam?

How current does it need to be? Can it be obtained early, to prepare?

Does it need to be obtained from my fiance's hometown? How do we know where to go for this?

As far as having it translated to English, how do I find a reputable company?

My fiance is no help here, he has never gotten anything translated or a police certificate. Please VN members, your input would be much appreciated here. We expect packet 3 any day! :dance: Looks like some other VN members will be having their interview around the same time, maybe we can all meet up for drinks! :thumbs: Mr. Leggs, Jonas, anyone else?

Thank you everyone

Ok, know where that is...that helps a lot. Sorry to sound naive but do we just walk in and say, hi, we need his police certificate? What does he bring with him? Ho khau (household book)? ID card? Anything else? Thanks

p.s. been hearing that you don't need to translate it to English for the consulate...does anyone know if that is for sure or not?

You can go to So Tu Phap cua Tinh where you live. As I know, each So Tu Phap had their own paper. If you don't, you get complained indirectly and waste time plus money

We didn't have any of that stuff translated into English. It's unnecessary when dealing with the consulate. Only the folks at USCIS need translations.

Let's see, we had the household book, the police certificate, the single certificate, and what else? I'm sure I'm forgetting something. If memory serves, the police cert. needs to be newer than 6 months.

Eric made a good point, even if he got the gender of his pronouns wrong. But he's always lived in...Nha Trang, is it? Memory is failing me. Wherever it is, he only needs one police certificate if he's only lived in one place.

This is a part of Vietnam side, your fiance should take care of it at VN. You can do nothing in USA.

Tell your fiance come to "So Tu Phap" of the province or city to apply for the "Ly lich tu phap". It is simple and only takes your fiance one ride to "So Tu Phap".
