Police certificate for Pakistan

[Bandaria 70]

Hello all, and Salam.

I'm confused- These are the instructions the Pakistani consulate sends:

"Police certificate(s) from all the countries outside Pakistan (except Afghanistan & India) applicant(s)

lived/living for more than 1 year after reaching the age of 16 years"

So my understanding from this is that police certificates from Pakistani cities are NOT required...?

Is that the case?

I seem to come across discussions where people are talking about how to obtain these, so I guess I'm confused. Do I need local police certificates, or just the ones from outside Pakistan?

Thank you for your time, any help you can provide is much appreciated. Especially those who have been through the process already.

Did they accept ur certificate?

On a side Thought, I believe that there is a reason Why AP's take so long becuz of no requirement of turning in police cert. and so they must be doing their own checks from A to Z of a person by themselves which obviously will take long. I hope they would go back and do like all of their other embassies in the world that require police cert so this long dreaded AP times shorten for us here

@Bandaria i also think that if you have been living outside then ur AP times might be shorten as they might not have so much to check on anyways. Wat do u think?

I hope you're right, but who know's what they decide to do.. you just never know with them

Does EVERYBODY in Pakistan get AP? Or do they still approve a large percentage of visa's directly after interview?
