Indian PCC in Dubai - Process

[forrest_in]

First thing amongst all the PCC's I am applying to and I've been in multiple countries, the process for India is most complex. Which is an irony given I am an Indian citizen.

If you are in the UAE - and I'll talk about Dubai as I am based there. Here's the process
1. Ensure you have a Dubai PCC in place. It's an easy process.
2.. You need 6 photos (2 in by 2 in) - White background with a dark coloured clothing. (Ensure its dark. Mine wasn't. I had my passport issued with a light shirt but PCC cannot be!!!!)
3. Download the form EAP 2 from the BLS site
4. Keep copies of your passport, visa, emirates id
5. Write a letter addressed to The Consultate General of India in the UAE requesting issuance of the letter
6. Carry a document checklist from your CIC application
7. Visit the BLS office. They will first check these documents and then scribble on your form addressing the Indian consulate (But Dubai) to approve it.
8. You then take this and give it there. Will take you half an hour and you will get it back with a green colored scribble of the approval (Can go between 8 am - 12 noon)
9. Its good to take a print of the Personal Particulars Form first itself (http://www.blsindiavisa-uae.com/passport/Police-Clearance-Certificate.php) - I was asked to fill this finally with no intimation on my first trip. Fill one and take 2 copies (for a total of 3) - attach photos on all 3
10. Return back to BLS with these.
11. Again go to the reception. They will check and give you a token.
12. It may take anything between 1.5 - 2 hours for your turn.
13. Hand it over to the person. Alongwith your passport. Ya you need to hand in your passport.
14. Payment of AED 147
15. You get a receipt stating 5 days. No I'm waiting

Hi, could you please update how much time it took for your passport to be returned? I will be in a same situation as you. How did you receive your UAE PCC? By Mail, had to collect in person or is it digital?

Hi, I am also in the same boat as you. How much time did it take your passport to be returned? Was police verification done in your case too?

Any advice would be helpful as I am not able to get any answers from BSL or Consulate.

Hi how long did it take to receive the Indian PCC?

Hi it’s real quick process, we submitted our application on 29 July and got our passports and PCC from Indian embassy on 31 July. Though they do mention a time frame of 5-7 working days. But it’s really fast and easy.
