Unable to get Cambodian Police certificate, left country many years ago. crazy idea??.

Hi guys,

I've been stressing out trying to figure out how to get a cambodian police certificate, i used to live there when i was 10 to 18 years old due to my dads job.. I left in 2012 and returned back to my home country, japan.. I've called the cambodian embassy in tokyo and was no help, emailed various law firms in cambodia and asking for their prices.. I've gotten a price range of $1500-$2500??? pretty insane..

Our last option would be me flying there again to process it, its expensive but definitely cheaper than law firm prices.. I'm just so busy finishing college that i dont know if i have time to fl to cambo..

MY QUESTION IS: Is there anyway I can just not mention ever living in cambodia and just present a japanese police certificate??? Will they figure out im lying??

Any information will be appreciated.

I would definitely not lie and leave it off. It could come back to haunt you later.

Do you know anyone in Cambodia that can go there on your behalf?

If not, it would be best for you to travel there and get it yourself. Getting a lawyer involved might just complicate/delay things, in my opinion

I agree with ch3john not to leave anything off. Your passport immigration stamps will show that you were in Cambodia for some duration, right?

Thanks for the reply! My passport with all my cambodian immigration stamps and visa have expired... Since im using a new one thought I could get away with it, I guess not :/

Thanks for the reply! Yes, i've got some family friends living there.. I dont want to trouble them! I guess my only option is to fly there and get it it done myself.. Will have to delay our petition, for a second I thought I found a shortcut!
