Hi all

There may not be any other people out there in this situation at the moment! They just started a new fingerprint process in Auckland - the Auckland Police Stations are not doing fingerprints at the moment- it has been taken over by NZ Post in 3 Auckland locations. The fingerprints are good for FBI and UK police clearances but not accepted for South African police clearance.

The South African High Commission expects South African's living in Auckland to pop down to Wellington to get them done there and only during the week. Not so easy when you have a full time job.

Glad I started planning for this now even though I am not close to needing it yet.

Just so frustrating!

Cheers

Electronic fingerprints are now accepted by SA Police for Police Clearance certificates so it is possible to get them from NZ Post. The above post is no longer relevant.
