Getting a police report on Thai gf........not mine!

Featured Replies

My cousin is in Fiji with his Chiang Mai lady and apparently, in order to extend her visa there, she needs a statement from the Chiang Mai police attesting that she has no criminal record. Does anyone know what is necessary to get that report? Can anyone do it? I know she has a sister here that could possibly do the leg work but I don't think she's the type that would know where to start. Which is why I'm here asking questions.

Where to start?

Many thanks.

i had to go to police headquarters in bangkok to get clearence for a uk visa for the wife but that was about seven years ago so things might have changed now,rembered it was not cheap was told it was free,no way, though i think they saw me coming.
