Australian Police Certificate done in Vietnam?

[tuvaty 3]

I previously posted a police certificate question in Vietnam forum, but can't find it in the search. So anyway, wondering if you've seen this gets done before in Vietnam. Here's the story.

Wife was in Australia for 4 years. Then in HCMC over a year. And her home of record is in Da Nang.

So we went to So Tu Phap (courthouse in Vietnam?), they said they can do all of the police certificate and criminal checks in Vietnam AND the time she was in Australia, too! That way, she won't need to get in contact with Australia to get the police certificate from them.

Is that possible? Will the NVC and US consulate in HCMC accept that? Or should we contact Australia and get the police certificate directly from them?

She needs OZ police certificate from OZ, not VN. Not enough coffee money to make that happen.

I was in Ireland when I was processing my CR1 and it was required for me to get an Australian Police Certificate. I called the australian department that is responsible for issuing the police certificate. I didn't take long (I think I got it in 2 weeks time). Its been a while so I can't remember the exact details. I just wanted to say that I did not have a hard time getting it. The key thing for me was I called them up and explained what I need and they gave me clear instructions which I followed to the detail and everything went smoothly.

I'll look up my address book to see if I recorded anything. My only worry is this occurred in early part of 2005 so numbers might have changed and perhaps even procedures. The best thing to do is to try and get the contact details of the deptartment involved. I looked it up on the web by doing google queries.

Thanks Anh map, but I don't think it's about coffee money; I think it's about the services that they provide, and whether or not the CO will accept the police certificate provided by a non-Aussie service [in Vietnam]. Which I think not, so yeah, I'll contact the Aussies and get the police record.

Thanks aussie girl!
