Police Certificate

[aquraishi 0]

My wife has been living in Karachi since Jan 2009, prior to that she lived in Islamabad for about 8 years. Does she need to get the Police Certificate/s from both cities or only from Karachi?

Thanks,

Cities? I dont think the cities matter, just the country!

And - if for some reason - it is not a country but a city-thing in Pakistan: I would get one from both cities (assuming your wife was 16+ when she lived in Islamabad)

Hi,

Police Records

Police records (also known as Character Certificates) are available at no cost from District Coordinating Offices, and take up to three months to obtain. There is no central police register in Pakistan, and applicants should therefore provide certificates from every jurisdiction in which they have lived for the requisite period of time. Police certificates are available by mail. Applicants currently outside Pakistan should contact the nearest Pakistani Embassy or Consulate for instructions.

Non-Pakistani citizens may have difficulty obtaining police records even if they are/were residents of Pakistan. Police records are unavailable to non-Pakistani citizens if they are/were not officially resident in Pakistan while present here (e.g., Afghan citizens staying in refugee camps.)

Thank you,

I will ask my wife to get the certificates from both cities, which will be hard for her because she will have to travel to islamabad just to get that as this is not easy in pakistan to get it
