Police Clearance Certificate(PCC) From Kuwait
=============================================
Dear All
I would like to share the steps of taking PCC from Kuwait.
1) Once you recieved the status "We have started processing your application" in ECAS
then you can start preparing for PCC. It will take only 5 days to get it.
2) Take the photocopies of PER mail, Passport (front,back,visa stamp page) and Civil Id .I took the same documents (except civil id copy, I placed the passport copy of visa cancellation page and an authorize letter from my wife for processing this on her behalf) of my wife as well since I cancelled her residence visa and relocated to my home country already.
3) Don't forget to carry your original Passport and Civil id.
4) Go to Embassy of Canada,Daiya,Kuwait City (https://www.google.com/maps/place/Embassy+of+Canada/ @ 29.358332,48.019169,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x3fcf9cb8277a134f:0x6e8f5ad01267d961). Get amused by seeing the canadian consulate in a housing colony
!!!
5) There you will find a security guard, straight away he will ask "You come for PCC"
. Answer "yes" and he will ask us to sign and will take our mobile phone and all and will allow you to enter the premisis.
6) Once you go into the building you will see the reception and the nice receptionist will ask you politely "What can I do for you sir" (Can't see this in any other governement offices here
). tell her that you want PCC form and give her the copies of PER mail, Passport and Civil Id. She will give you a form (only one page) with a canadian consulate stamp on it. Hurray!!! .... first step is over ... this process will take hardly 5 minutes....say a thank you to the receptionist and go back to your car. Don't forget to collect those things that you gave to the security person while entering.
7) Fill the form by giving your personal details such as name, DOB,address etc... and sign it.
8) Now take the documents ie, Form from Canadian Embassy, copies of Passport (front,back,visa stamp page),Civil Id and one passport size photo with blue background.
9) Start the car a enter the string "Ministry of Interior - Department of fingerprints,Al-Dajeej,Kuwait City,Kuwait" into your GPS (https://www.google.com/maps/place/Ministry+of+Interior+-+Department+of+fingerprints/ @ 29.261402,47.968124,17z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m2!3m1!1s0x3fcf997092b3ffc7:0xffc19b13638cf23) it will direct to the office. If you coming from 6th ring road take the left road in front of passport office after the city centre and go straight till the end and take right then you can see the building on the left side.Park your car there and go to the second entrance of the building ( the same side you just drove now).
10) It is a small L shaped room , go straight and turn right you can see two poilcemen sitting there. Go to anyone and give the documents.
11) Police man will check your documents and will take a sticker ,and will stamp it over the form then will give you the reciept infact the copy of same stamp, keep that in your wallet, this will be the reference for getting the original PCC (He asked about my wife's availability and told him that I cancelled her residence already she is now in home country, then he wrote something in arabic over her form). Then he will give the form to us and will ask us to go and provide the finger print. The fingerprint machines are located at the same room itself . There you have to give the form to the officer standing in fornt of it, he will ask your original passport for verification and will adjust the digital camera infront of us and will take a photograph then he will scan your fingers as well and will tell you "come after 5 days" . Hurray!!!!!!........ second steps finished!!!.
12) Go to the same office after 5 days and give the receipt and your take your PCC !!!!!
.... Don't forget to say thanks ...
