I agree that it will need to be declared and that the safest thing to do is have a notarized explanation from the attorney. Also, name checks don't always show everything and sometimes the FBI check that they run off your fingerprints will show the arrests, even if they do not show up on the police cert that you pick up, since mostly convictions and not necessarily arrests show up there.

As for the difference between the "suspicion of possession" and "trafficking" (sp?) that you mentioned is HUGE!

The FBI namecheck is only going to reveal US charges.

An arrest will show. If there's a subsequent conviction that will show. If there was no conviction, the court record will be necessary to show the nature of the disposition of the charges.

I was under the impression it happened in the U.S. I could be confused (that is a frequent occurence.)

I did say a fingerprint check, so that it would show arrests. . .The OP said there were no charges pressed, this is why I didn't mention court records
