Police clearance certificate support
Safar Injaz is a UAE-based service that helps applicants obtain a police clearance certificate (PCC) for a Saudi visa file, from the UAE or their home country, where the Saudi mission requires one. We check which certificate the case needs, help prepare the application and arrange attestation where required. The police or the issuing authority issues the certificate.

You're probably here because
- The Saudi embassy or consulate handling your work visa has asked for a police clearance certificate.
- You live or used to live in the UAE and need a UAE police clearance (good conduct) certificate.
- You need a certificate from your home country, such as a PCC through Passport Seva in India or an NBI clearance in the Philippines.
- Your certificate has been issued and now needs attestation for your Saudi visa file.
What to send us
Start with clear copies. We'll tell you if and when an original is needed.
- Passport copy and a recent photo
- For a UAE certificate: your Emirates ID if you live in the UAE, or a copy of your last UAE visa if you don't
- If you are outside the UAE: a fingerprint card from your country of residence, attested by the UAE embassy there
- For a home-country certificate: the documents that country's police or passport authority asks for. We confirm the list for your case.
- Who asked for the certificate, and where it will be used
How it works
Check what is needed
Tell us which Saudi mission is handling the visa and where you have lived. We confirm whether a certificate is required, from which country, and whether it must be attested, and give you a quotation.Application
We help you prepare the application for the issuing authority. In the UAE, residents apply online to the Ministry of Interior or Dubai Police; people outside the UAE apply with a fingerprint card attested by the UAE embassy. Home-country certificates follow that country's own process, which may include fingerprints or an in-person visit.Attestation
Where the Saudi mission requires it, we coordinate attestation of the certificate with the relevant authorities.Ready for the visa file
The certificate goes into the visa file. We keep an eye on its issue date: a Dubai Police certificate, for example, is valid for three months from issue.
What we don't do
Being clear about this up front saves you time and money.
- We don't issue police clearance certificates. The police or the issuing authority decides and issues them.
- We can't change what a record says, and we won't submit a certificate we believe is false or altered.
- We help with certificates from the UAE and the applicant's home country. Ask us first about any other country.
- We can't promise a date. Each authority sets its own processing time.
- We are a private service, not the police, a ministry or an embassy, and we are not affiliated with them.
Safar Injaz provides assistance and coordination subject to applicable regulations and service-provider authorisations. Visa issuance and approval remain with the relevant authorities.

Questions about police clearance
Does every Saudi work visa need a police clearance certificate?
No. It depends on the Saudi mission in the applicant's country and the case. We check what the mission handling your visa asks for before you apply.
How do I get a UAE police clearance certificate?
UAE certificates are issued by the police. Residents can apply online through the Ministry of Interior or Dubai Police with their Emirates ID. If you no longer live in the UAE, you need a fingerprint card from your country of residence, attested by the UAE embassy there, and a copy of your last UAE visa.
How long is a UAE police clearance certificate valid?
A Dubai Police good conduct certificate is valid for three months from the date of issue. We time the application with the rest of the visa file so the certificate is still valid when it is needed.
Can I get a police certificate from my home country while abroad?
Often, yes. For example, Filipinos abroad can apply for an NBI clearance with a fingerprint form taken at a Philippine embassy, consulate or police station, and Indian police clearance certificates are applied for through Passport Seva. Each country has its own process, so we check yours.
How much does it cost?
It depends on the country issuing the certificate and whether attestation is needed. Contact us for a personalised quotation. We give you a clear breakdown of our service charges and the applicable government fees before proceeding.
