For all applicants, a form letter from the requesting/processing office (NVC, KCC, Embassy, employer  etc.)  is required to obtain a Certificate of Clearance (COC).  Such letter should specify the need for the clearance and state explicitly that "a statutory declaration of no criminal conviction by the applicant is not acceptable as evidence that he/she does not have criminal convictions".   The COC will be sent directly to the requesting/processing office.

Applicants should apply for the Certificate of Clearance online via the Singapore Police Force eServices website at: http://www.police.gov.sg/e-services/apply/certificate-of-clearance.
