Police Reference For Thai Fiancé

[tomcreeduk]

When I apply for a settlement visa after myself & fiancé marry in Thailand is it necessary to submit a police check / reference confirming she doesn't have a criminal record.

If this is necessary is it a matter of just walking into a police station and asking for one.

Thanks

e walked into the Royal Tgai Office. Officer told my wife, then fiancee, to come back in two weeks. OR (there is always a caveat)..... for a 'consideration' we could get it in two days. Two days later we picked it up. TiT

What country are you asking about?

From your nic I assume it's the UK; in which case a police check is not required.

Sorry yes UK is correct. That's saves more time. Thanks
