I'm returning to the UK soon and i'll need a certificate of 'good behavior' from the police in Thailand for a business venture in the UK. I've been here almost permanently for the past 4 years. Does anyone know how and where i apply for such a thing?

Any info gratefully received.

I don't need one but by googling " certificate of 'good behavior' from the police in Thailand" ...I nearly got one!!

Never heard of such a document but I'm sure you can buy 1 on the khosan road

I found this, hope it helps:

Appli­cants should apply in per­son at the Spe­cial Branch of the Royal Thai Police (see below). Thai nation­als must sub­mit the orig­i­nal and one self-certified copy of each of their pass­port, national iden­ti­fi­ca­tion card (if applic­a­ble), house­hold reg­is­tra­tion (if applic­a­ble), mar­riage, divorce and name change cer­tifi­cates and mil­i­tary record (if any), plus a copy of the request for police clear­ance issued by Cit­i­zen­ship and Immi­gra­tion Canada (if any), and two recent pho­tographs. For­eign res­i­dents should sub­mit the orig­i­nal and one self-certified copy of their pass­port, visa work per­mit or proof of employ­ment, or proof of stay in Thai­land, with two recent photographs.

Let them prove otherwise, totalitarian scum.

But if you are British its be a Police record check .. you can get that over the internet i believe.

Thanks for all the replies

You need a Thai police clearance.

Police HQ on Rama 1 Rd in BKK, right across from central world.

My wife needed one recently to update her Australian teaching license. Pretty straightforward and there are a helpful team of near retired coppers there who help fill out the froms. Took 2 or 3 weeks from memory for them to process.The cost is nominal.

They'll ask you for what country or countries you need it for, and it will be produced in English.

The proof that you have been living here legally is important. If you have been a visa cowboy working illegally they will know and you will not be processed.
