Qatar Police Clearance Certificate

How to Apply for a Qatar Police Clearance Certificate

Qatar is a small peninsula that extends into the Persian Gulf from the east of the Arabian Peninsula. Saudi Arabia is to the west and the United Arab Emirates to the south. Qatar is part of the GCC countries.
Qatar discovered oil in the 1940’s and became a wealthy country from there on. 85 % of their income comes from oil exports. Qatar is famous for liquid gas as well.
Qatar is ruled by the royal family. Qatar has seen steady growth since 1940. Qatar is proudly hosting the FIFA world cup this year.
If you are a Qatari or an expat living in Qatar, at some point in time you would require a good conduct certificate which is otherwise called a Police Clearance Certificate. This certificate could be required for various reasons:

Qatar PCC for immigration purposes

If you have lived in Qatar at some point in your life, Qatar PCC is a must to prove to the country you are immigrating to that you have no criminal background.

Qatar PCC for higher studies

At times, a student who decides to pursue studies abroad and has lived in Qatar previously may have to secure a Qatar PCC to prove that he/ she has no criminal background.

Qatar PCC for government or semi government jobs

If you are an expat and decide to move from Qatar to take up a job in any other country in a government or semi government company, your future employer may require you to secure a PCC from Qatar as part of a background verification check.

Qatar PCC for employment abroad

If you are an expat and decide to move from Qatar to take up a job in any other country, your future employer may require you to secure a PCC from Qatar.

Qatar PCC for consulate staff.

If your future job is at any consulate or embassy, they may surely need to see your background. If you have lived in Qatar, then a Qatar PCC would probably be needed as part of your supporting document submission.

Qatar PCC for consulate staff

If lived in Qatar and marrying in another country, a Qatar PCC is required sometimes.

Qatar PCC for business set-up

When planning to do a business set up in another country, other than Qatar, you may be required to submit a Qatar PCC if you have lived in Qatar previously. This is to show no criminal evidence against you and that you have a clear background.
A Qatar PCC could be also required by customs clearance employees, veterinarians and of course for independent school licensees.
A Qatar PCC is similarly known as a Good Conduct Certificate or a character certificate. It is commonly used to warrant that the said applicant has no criminal history, and if the applicant has, the PCC discloses all relevant evidence.

If for some reason you are unable to apply for the PCC directly, you can request a representative or a document clearing company in Qatar to assist you. You will need to provide a POA authorising the person to represent you and apply for the Qatar pcc on your behalf. In addition to the POA you would need the below documents as well:
