Important
The Travel Visa Company Ltd do not issue your Police Certificate. This is undertaken by the ACRO Criminal Records Office. For a service fee as set out below, we strive to make the process of obtaining your Police certificate as easy as possible, and where appropriate, offer you a single point of application to arrange the relevant documentation required for obtaining your travel visas.
Certain details will be stepped-down from an ACRO Certificate after a set period of time depending on the nature of the offence, the age of the subject when the offence was committed, and the sentence imposed. If these details are no longer present on the ACRO, then a Subject Access Report will be required. The Travel Visa Company can obtain this for you to ensure you have all documents required for your visa application.
What to Expect
- Application – Use the online portal to submit your application and upload your supporting documents
- Submission – After thoroughly quality checking your application and supporting documents to the highest standard, The Travel Visa Company will submit your application to the relevant authorities on your behalf.
- Approval – Once the Police Certificate is issued we will arrange secure delivery via Royal Mail Special Delivery. If we are also assisting with a visa application we will ensure a copy is also provided to the relevant immigration authority.
