A police certificate — also known as a police clearance, criminal record check, or certificate of good conduct — is an official document issued by a country's law enforcement or judicial authority confirming whether an individual has a criminal record. These documents are known by different names in different countries: FBI Identity History Summary (United States), ACRO Police Certificate (United Kingdom), National Police Check (Australia), Casier Judiciaire (France), Polizeiliches Fuhrungszeugnis (Germany), and Certificado de Antecedentes Penales (Spanish-speaking countries). Regardless of the issuing authority or format, a certified English translation is required when the certificate is in a foreign language and must be presented to Australian or US authorities.
Under section 501 of the Australian Migration Act 1958, the Department of Home Affairs conducts character assessments for all visa applicants. This typically requires police certificates from every country where the applicant has lived for 12 months or more in the past 10 years. The certificates and their translations must be current — most have a validity period of 6 to 12 months from the date of issue. NAATI-certified translations are mandatory for all police certificates submitted to the Department of Home Affairs, whether for skilled worker visas (subclass 189/190/491), employer-sponsored visas (subclass 482/494), partner visas, or citizenship applications.
For US immigration, USCIS requires police certificates from all countries where the applicant has resided for six months or more since age 16. These must be accompanied by certified English translations for Form I-485, I-140, diversity visa lottery processing, and all consular immigrant visa interviews. The US Department of State maintains specific instructions for obtaining police certificates from each country, and our translators are familiar with the formats from every jurisdiction.
Country-specific formats vary considerably. Chinese police certificates (wu fanzui jilu zhengming) are issued by the local Public Security Bureau and include a red stamp. Indian Police Clearance Certificates are issued through Passport Seva Kendras. Middle Eastern certificates often include court records alongside police records. South American certificates may be issued by both police and judicial authorities separately. Our translators have extensive experience with police certificate formats from over 100 countries and ensure every detail — including stamps, seals, reference numbers, and issuing authority details — is accurately translated.
We translate from all major languages into English, and from English into foreign languages. Most commonly requested:
