Obtaining a Dubai Police Clearance Certificate for Canadian Permanent Residency

If you lived in Dubai and need a Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) for Canadian PR, follow these steps:

1. Gather Documents: Completed application, passport copy (all pages), Emirates ID copy, visa copy, 2 passport photos, AED 100 fee.
2. Apply: Online via Dubai Police e-Services or in person at CID Headquarters or service centers.
3. Wait: Processing typically takes 2–3 weeks (varies by case).
4. Collect: Pick up in person with original passport & Emirates ID, or have it delivered.
5. Submit to IRCC: Include the original PCC in your Canadian PR application package.

Note: If your UAE residency was under 12 months, you may not be eligible; consult IRCC for alternatives. Start early to avoid delays.
