If you live in Saudi Arabia:
A police certificate request letter will be sent to you by mail after your application for Permanent Residence has been received. You
must present this letter, along with valid identification and proof of legal residency in Saudi Arabia to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. If they approve you, the letter will give you the address to the police headquarters where you must go and apply in person.
If your application is being processed at the
Canadian High Commission in London, you are not required to get a police certificate until the London visa office sends you a police certificate request letter with instructions on how to apply.
If you are applying at the
Canadian Embassy in Abu Dhabi, UAE, you should submit a police certificate with your application. You can contact the visa office for a request letter by completing the
IRCC Web form – Abu Dhabi. Please include your immigration file number if you have one.
For applications being processed at
any other office, request letters can be requested by completing the
IRCC Web form - Riyadh. Please include the file number, the office where you applied and your mailing address.
