Obtaining Police Clearance Certificates from Australia
Sometimes you may need to show a foreign authority that you have no criminal record in Australia, for example if you are applying for a work permit in some countries in Europe. Some employers also require proof that you have no criminal record. In addition, the Australian immigration authorities sometimes require criminal records checks.
To obtain a criminal history check, you should contact the Criminal History Branch of the Australian Federal Police in Canberra:
Criminal History Branch
Locked Bag No. 1
Weston ACT 2611
Australia
Tel: +61 2 6256 7777
