I backpacked in Australia for 7 months, left to travel elsewhere for 2 months, then came back to Australia for 3 more months. I was backpacking and didn't hold a residence in once place for longer 3 months. If you're traveling within a country does this count as residing in the country for which I need a police certificate?

I also lived in Thailand for 7 months teaching but there is no information anywhere about how to get a police check. On the US reciprocity tables website, they say:

____________________________________________________________________

Police Records

Available. Police certificates are obtainable from:

Section 3, Sub-Division 2. General Staff Division

Special Branch

Royal Thai Police Department

Rama I Road

Pathumwan, Bangkok 10330

Residents of Thailand requesting a Thai police certificate will need to present two recent photographs (2 inch x 2 inch), the original and a copy of his/her passport, identification card, household registration, name change certificate (if any), marriage and divorce certificate (if any). Thai males aged 17-45 must also present military record or proof of exemption from military service.

Non-residents should send their requests to the Royal Thai Police Department at the above address with the required documents and a fingerprint taken by a police authority at their place of residence.

Normal processing time is two to three weeks. There is no processing fee.

_________________________________________________

but for non-residents they don't tell you what the required documents are!
