Police background check

Featured Replies

Hi, can anybody describe what is required for police background check for a school?

I'm not being hired by the school I am being a voluntary sports coach.

Yeah... are you in Bangkok? 

As I know it.. First, your school may be wanting a government level check from your own country. You should ask to be sure about this. See if they will accept the RTP special branch... Here is what it looks like. I worked previously and when the school asked I showed them this and they accepted it.

They have an office only in Bangkok as i know. It takes about 3 weeks to get it sent to your school... You need to bring your passport and contract from the school when going there to get your fingerprints scanned. 

 

The process is simple but they take awhile to mail it to you. They may accept bribes to do it faster if i recall.. 

 

If the school will not accept this.. Then the only choice you have would be to get one from your own country. FBI would be where in the USA... I am not sure about other countries.

Hi, thanks for response 

I'm not being hired by the school, I am volunteering as a sports coach as they starting a new set of volleyball teams.

 

The school is in Rayong province, so I really don't want to go to police HQ in BKK if possible.

 

Other teachers said they have done it in Rayong and Sattahip provinces

Don't get caught doing it by immigration.. Even though you are volunteering it is still within the rules for needing a work permit... So try to get the school to get you the work permit..

It is done the same day.  Not sure what the "three weeks" guy is on about.

 

They don't check anything.  You just roll your fingers on a digital ink pad.

 

step 1 - pay money

step 2 - fingerprint

step 3 - get a letter
