Police clearance from abroad

[Anne Kristina 0]

I once lived in Turkey when I was an exchange student (15 years ago). The academic year was from September to June (= less than 12 months). I have, however, travelled to that same country several times in my life for tourism purposes (visa free stays). My address then has been in my home country of course. Should I get the police clearance report from Turkey too even though I have not LIVED there for more than 12 months?

In this case no, an exchange program under a year would not require a police certificate from that country.  Nita had one in Australia way back (well about 10 years before we got married) and a police certificate was not required. 

 

Were you on an exchange program and in Turkey for 6+ months and your case was being processed in Turkey you would have to provide one.

 

Visits for tourism do not require police certificates.
