Police Records

Police clearances are available for Saudi citizens and resident third country nationals. Saudi citizens currently residing overseas must return in person to process the police clearance.

Saudi citizens and third country nationals residing in the Kingdom process the police clearances by first obtaining a police clearance request letter from U.S. Embassy Riyadh, U.S. Consulate General Jeddah, or U.S. Consulate General Dhahran. This police clearance request letter, signed by a consular officer, must be attested by the Saudi Ministry of Affairs (current fee is SR30). The applicant must then appear personally with a passport-sized photograph and a national ID or residency permit at the regional Criminal Investigation Department for fingerprinting. Fingerprinting for women is done in a separate room. The police clearance should be available for collection after a week or two.

Police clearances are available for Saudi nationals residing outside of the Kingdom. The expatriate Saudi citizen obtains the police clearance by returning to the Kingdom and obtaining a police clearance request letter from U.S. Embassy Riyadh, U.S. Consulate General Jeddah, or U.S. Consulate General Dhahran. This police clearance request letter, signed by a consular officer, must be attested by the Saudi Ministry of Affairs (current fee is SR30). The applicant must then appear personally with the attested police clearance request letter, a passport-sized photograph and a national ID at the Regional Criminal Investigation Department for fingerprinting. Fingerprinting for women is done in a separate room. The police clearance should be available for collection after a week or two.

Police clearances are unavailable for third country nationals who no longer reside in the Kingdom.

The optimal time to conduct these procedures at the police stations is 10:00 Saturdays-Wednesdays.

If your husband moves back to 'Pinas and has his interview at the U.S. Embassy Manila, then he will not be required to submit a Saudi police certificate. If he interviews in Saudi, he will need a Saudi police certificate.

Thanks for the info..I just wanna verify this facts.. because as I know..once my husband leave from Saudi to go home to Philippines for the process, he will no longer be able to obtain this Police Certificate..and I dont wanna end up beating myself for it, if we end up needing it and no longer be able to obtain it. Please shed some light :help:

Just like what Tahoma said, if he comes home to PH then CO will not ask for it. It's unavailable, they know this as part of the Reciprocity Schedule.

Police clearances are unavailable for third country nationals who no longer reside in the Kingdom.

He can't obtain the clearance till he has the interview letter from NVC.

For the people who said that if he's interviewing in his home country he wouldn't need a PCC from Saudi, are you sure about this ?

That's the reason why Im so reluctant and trying to diggin to this matter further,because I want to be sure coz once he left saudi, then later on required him to submit one ..we'll be doomed :unsure:

Yes, I'm sure about this.

I've never seen the U.S. Embassy Manila (USEM) issue a 221g requiring a Saudi police clearance.

According to the U.S. Department of State: Police clearances are unavailable for third country nationals who no longer reside in the Kingdom. U.S. Department of State link.

The USEM is aware of this.
