Q1257. Where can I get a Thai police clearance certificate in Chiang Rai?
Answered by NYC Visa & Translation
Chiang Rai residents should apply through the Royal Thai Police Special Branch’s Police Clearance Service Center in Bangkok for a police clearance certificate intended for overseas use. A local police report or fingerprint sheet is not a substitute for that certificate. Because travelling from Chiang Rai requires planning, first confirm with the center whether a remote or representative application is available for your applicant category. If local fingerprinting is permitted, ask which form and identification documents are required before visiting a station. Ensure your passport details and any previous names are correctly documented. Separately, ask the destination embassy whether it requires translation, Thai legalization, or another authentication step before arranging those services.
