Hi,

I'm a Nigerian, I lived in China for 16months on F-visa, later returned to Nigeria and NVC asked me to get police reports from there.

Can anyone tell me how to go about it? I email Guangzhou public security bureau but my email message is coming bouncing back.

Await your suggestions.

Benjamin.

Ok, please let me know what did you do in China in the past 16 months? Did you work in any company or any university ? if so, it wouldn't be difficult for you to get police record . first, you need to go to your company or univeristy to get the proof that you have never had any criminal during the time. then, you take that paper to police station to get the police record.

Hi Linda,

Thanks for your message.

I didn't work in any company just doing business of buying and selling while I was there. I'm presently in Nigeria, I need someone to help me to get it.

Hope you can help me out.

Ben.

Generally available, reliable. Persons should apply for a certificate of no criminal record at the local Public Security Bureau (PSB) (or certain types of employers such as state owned enterprises), then make application to the notary office for a certificate based on the PSB document. Persons without a criminal record will be able to obtain a certificate to that effect. Certificates for individuals with one or more criminal convictions will list all convictions for which records still exist. The certificates purport to reflect all criminal convictions during residence in China. Police records are generally not available for the period prior to 1949. Certificates are available for those in the J-1, Z, and X categories. The GOC does not issue police records for temporary residents of China in L or F visa categories.

Police records also are not available for those who were in China in diplomatic status including those working for international organizations such as the United Nations. Notarial police certificates are based in part upon records from an individual's employer. If an employer refuses to release records, the notarial office is not able to issue a certificate. This is the case for persons sent abroad for education by the Chinese Government who fail to return to China.

According to a 1957 state council ruling that is still in force, the imposition of a re-education through labor (Lao Dong Jiao Yu) term does not result from a criminal conviction. Administrative organs, rather than courts, impose re-education through labor. It is important to distinguish re-education through labor from labor reform (Lao Dong Gai Zao), which is a sentence meted out for criminal offenses.

Hi,

Thanks for your reply.

Is it as long I stayed there on F visa, I don't need police records? I stayed there for 1yr and 4months.

Ben.
