IF THE OTHER COUNTRY IF A PERSON IS GETTING THE PCC

as he is not going back to that country any more and if our case reached and the PCC GET expired then

as its very hard to get once you are out from that country

Hi,

Just wanted share my actual experience. I, also took Police Certificate in Dubai, UAE recently. I have a previous record of getting a police clearance before I left Dubai in 2010. When I called Dubai Police on how to obtain it from outside country. They have instructed me that i need someone who lives in Dubai that could process it in-behalf of me. I called my colleague ans I ask for assistance. I just only submitted my old copy of police clearance and picture and ofcourse the fee. And after 3 days it was issued and couriered in my home country.

Your embassy will recognize that you are unable to secure the PCC since you are not physically present at UAE and will waive the requirement.
