Not sure how accurate this is but this is what i found.....Centralized criminal records covering Zambia are maintained at Police Headquarters, Criminal Investigation Department, P.O. Box Ridgeway l04, Lusaka, Zambia. The Zambian Police issue certificates for any resident or former resident of Zambia which states whether or not a criminal record exists. If a record exists, it will give the particulars of the offense. The Republic of Zambia Police requires a complete set of fingerprints in order to issue the clearance certificate. The applicant should be fingerprinted by the police officer in the country of residence. The fingerprint form must be signed by the police officer and must bear the stamp of the local police. The applicant or the local police should then send the fingerprints to the Criminal Investigation Department with a written request that the police certificate be issued. Payment should be a bank draft made payable to the Zambia Police, Criminal Investigation Department, P.O. Box RW 104, Lusaka, Zambia.

Just goto the Zambia embassy website and do a search....hope tis a starting point.

Getting police records in SA:

Available. Criminal records since 1901 covering the entire Republic are maintained at the South African Police Headquarters, Pretoria. The period The Commissioner of the South African Police issues certificates upon application, stating whether or not a criminal record exists, and, if so, particulars of the offense as well as any sentence passed.

The police authorities require an applicant to present verification of identity, such as a Book of Life, or valid passport, and a payment of R41.00 (South African rand forty one payable in cash, cheque or postal order, made payable to the South African police).

To obtain a certificate that is issued in single copy only, fingerprints must be taken by the local police in the applicant's place of residence. The South African police forwards the completed fingerprint chart and the fee to the head office in Pretoria for issuance of the police clearance certificate. If the applicant is residing in the United States, he or she should forward a bank draft in the aount of R41.00 together with a completed fingerprint chart (bearing an official signature and stamp of the local police station) to:

South African Police Service

Criminal Record Centre

Private Bang X308

Pretoria 0001, South Africa

Alternatively, he/she should authorize a friend/relative in South Africa to submit the application on behalf of the applicant.
