i used to work in Japan also in year 2000, 2001, 2003 and 2004 (all lenght of stay were six months) but we chose not to include those said addresses on my forms coz getting a police clearance is a pretty much hassle for me specially i live in the province. if you put your work address in japan then YES! you are required to get one.

good luck!

it is a requirement so yes, you need to get police clearance from japan. not getting one might be a reason for your visa application to be declined. there's no harm in completing your requirements and not risking not to get what you want, right? it took me more than 4 months to complete my bahrain police clearance but on my interview i was confident my documents were in order that's why i never thought of not getting the applied visa. it would add to your confidence.

goodluck and God bless!

dont panic. bahrain good conduct certificate (police clearance) is another story. bahrain has no embassy nor any consulate office here in PI, unlike japan. im sure yours will be a lot easier. but then, i hope you'd start getting one soon. time is of great essence.

kaya mo yan, girl. :)

I was just wondering....I read from this site that the packet 4 is already online. It means that I shouldn't wait for it to be delivered to me.

If this is true, how could I apply for Hong Kong police clearance when the letter they require which should come from NVC won't be delivered to me anymore?

Please refer here:

BASED FROM THE REQUIREMENT I COPIED BELOW, I NEED THE LETTER FROM NVC TO BE ABLE TO APPLY FOR HONG KONG POLICE CLEARANCE. I AM NOW SUPPOSED TO CALL THE USEMBASSY TO SCHEDULE MY INTERVIEW DATE SINCE I RECEIVED THE LETTER FROM THEM.

I haven't received any pocket yet which I think contains the letter. If my pocket arrives really late, then this will delay my application for Hong Kong Police clearance...

IS THERE ANYONE HERE WHO HAS SURPASSED THE BURDENSOME HONG KONG POLICE CLEARANCE PROCESS?^^

Help please"-"

Hi there! I've been in Japan. I've done the Police clearance bfore. You need to have your NOA2 first and your Manila case number for you to get a police clearance from Japan embassy. If you get all of that documents go to the USEM and show to the guard your NOA2 and ID and tell that you will get a letter inside the embassy to get a police clearance from Japan Embassy. WHen you get inside then GO TO WINDOW X and tell to the lady that you want a letter from them for you to get a police clearance from Japan Embassy since thats one of the requirement for you to get that POLICE certificate. When you have that letter go to Jpan EMbassy and they will give you a form and bring it to the Camp Crame and you need to have a finger print there. Dont pay them much..Maybe just pay 200 to 300 i guess since i just paid 200 bfore..Police clearance from japan embassy actually no payment its the finger print only from Camp Crame..Filipino style you know..Money money!.. then you have to wait just 1-1/2 for sure even they just say 2 to 3 months.. It will come as soon as possible anyways.

Hope this help your problem alot...GoodLuck and God BLess...

Make sure you apply this police clearance in Manila. It will take 1-1/2 months in Manila and 2-3 months in the Provinces.

Good morning. I am going to jump on this thread. Please bear with me as it is my first time posting to this board.

I am getting my papers ready to apply for K1. I plan to send them in the next few weeks. But I am thinking wayyyy ahead now.

My fiance in the Philippines has worked in Japan for 6 months back in 2006. I know she needs a police clearance from there. This thread has been very helpful in explaining the procedure. However, I have one additional question. She has since renewed her passport and has no record of her entry into / out of Japan. She also does not know the address of where she worked in Japan (I know this is a separate issue that I am researching for completing the I-129F). Will these two issues cause a problem for her getting the police clearance?

Thank you for letting me jump in on this thread.

Hello MalolosToUSA,

Im wondering, how come she dont know the address where she worked before in Japan? She stayed there for 6 months right? Also if you renew your passport, the old passport will be returned to you too. Maybe somehow immigration people will know if she renewed her passport and might ask for the old one and will find out that she stayed in Japan. Im not sure though, just thinking that maybe there's a way she can remember the address to avoid problems in the future. What about any documents or previous work contract? For sure address is stated there.

Thank you for the reply. I have asked her to look for her old paperwork. I know that she does not have her old passport. I am still going to put what information I have on the G-325A. I do not want to omit it and then be accused of lying on the form. I would rather have incomplete information than no information at all. I guess my question is if I put "Unknown" for the address, but have the city/country, if immigration will accept that. My other concern is if she cannot come up with the address, will the Japanese consulate give her problems when trying to get her police clearance?

You dont need to be specific with the address. i only put the machi (city), ken (state) and Japan after that. I am not sure if "unknown" is accetpable.
