After living in Qatar you may be asked to apply for a Police Clearance, also called a Good Conduct Certificate. According to the information provided by the Embassy of Qatar, you can apply for your Police Clearance by submitting the following documents:
Police Clearance Requirements (Issuance is from Qatar Embassy)
- A cover letter stating your request and the purpose – signed original.
- A copy of the passport used in Qatar.
- A copy of your old or expired residence visa in Qatar.
- A copy of your current passport.
- A copy of your current valid residence permit/citizenship in Canada (PRC, Work Permit). If you do not have this, you must apply from the country where you hold residency/work permit.
- Four photographs, passport size (size: 4.8cm*3.8cm), blue background – originals.
- If you had a Qatari Residency Permit after the year 2012, you are exempt from submitting a Canadian Fingerprint form.
- If you had a Qatari Residency Permit before the year 2012, you you will need to prepare and submit a Canadian Fingerprint form. The appropriate fingerprint form can be completed at a local Canadian police detachment. However, this form must be notarized before going through the authentication and legalization process.
Note: If you arrived before 2012 and were still a resident after 2012 and you have a Qatari ID, then you are also exempt from submitting a Canadian fingerprint form.
If you entered Qatar on two different periods (or more) and you request the certificate to cover the entire period, you must submit an application for each period, since you will be issued one per stay.
