Hi, this question is aimed at PDS Kiwi or anyone else with a real answer. I need to get a police report done that I wasn't a criminal ( I wasn't) it is to satisfy a visa for Australia. I lived in Cambodia for 10 years but didn't bother getting the check before I left. Regardless,
I have friends who can help "on the ground" and I will also be there for 2 weeks in mid September.. any advice of where to go and how much to pay would be appreciated.
Police Checks
Just curious, where are you from? I went to Australia after living here for years, and I just had to do an online form thing & then showed up with British passport, job done.
Also wat type of visa you are looking at might help PSD - tourist, or some kind of long term type thing that really does need such a check?

How to obtain a police clearance report from Cambodia
Your Embassy is unable to assist citizens in obtaining a police clearance certificate from Cambodian authorities.
Police Certificate:
To obtain a report, foreigners should go to the Criminal Office at the Ministry of Justice to request a Police Certificate. There are two different fees:
• 250,000 Riels (approximately USD62.5) for regular service which takes around 20 days, or
• 500,000 Riels (approximately USD125.00) for expedited service which takes around 12 days.
Applicants should have the following documents:
• Completed application form. (This form can be obtained at the Criminal Office);
• One passport sized photograph (size 4cm x 6cm);
• Completed bio-information form (This form can be obtained at the Criminal Office);
• Copy of the biographical page of the passport;
• Copies of the first and last Cambodian visas showing dates of arrival.
• Certificate of Residence from the Sangkat Administrative office where the applicant resides and/or resided whilst in Cambodia.
Applicants can authorise someone to apply for the Police Certificate for him/her. The applicant should complete an authorization form (the sample of the form is available at Criminal Office at Ministry of Justice), who can submit the completed forms at the Criminal Office. However, if the applicant is in Cambodia, they will be required to submit the form for themselves.
Certificate of Residence:
A Residence Certification Letter is required when applying for a Police Certificate. To obtain this document, foreigners should go to the local Sangkat office where the applicant resides/ resided in Cambodia to request the letter. There is a no-standard administrative fee for the provision of this letter.
Applicants should bring the following documents:
• If he/she is Cambodian: ID card, family book/ residence book, and house rental agreement (if he/ she did not own a house).
• If he/she is a foreigner: Passport, house rental agreement, job letter and other related documents to support the claim of residence.
Note:
The information in the residence certificate letter includes:
1. name of resident
2. house address
3. how long/length of stay that the resident stayed/ has stayed at that address.
The applicant may authorize someone living in Cambodia to apply for this letter for them. The applicant will need to provide an authorization letter for that person. However acceptance of this letter will be dependent on the Sangkat office. There is no national standard for this type of work.
To ease the process, foreigners are advised to request a Residence Certification Letter from their local Sangkat office prior to leaving their Cambodian place of residence.

I'm not a negative person, I encourage people all the time...it's usually to f**k off! But, whatever.
Note: I have never heard of anyone outside of Cambodia successfully obtaining a Police Check by authorising someone else, with the exception of an agency or law firm, to apply on their behalf.

Im British and the visa is Subclass 482 TSS/ Perhaps things have changes since you were there? Certainly once upon a time being a criminal was the criteria you needed to fulfil to go there.Spigzy wrote: ↑Mon Aug 08, 2022 9:56 amJust curious, where are you from?

Jokes aside, as Violet says the lawyers have provided me with what they need.
Brilliant, thank you very much for the, as always, excellent information.PSD_Kiwi wrote: ↑Mon Aug 08, 2022 11:36 amHow to obtain a police clearance report from Cambodia
