Applying for Police Clearance Certificates?
Applying for police clearance certificates requires a number of attested/notarised documents. For example:
- If your appearance has changed, you must submit Form J which has been notarised after you have signed it in front of a notary public. Form J is available for download from the VFS website (https://www.vfsglobal.com/india/australia/passport_service/pdf/Form-J.pdf). Witnessing you sign Form J means you must make an appointment to attend our office in person and sign the form in our presence. We then confirm that you are the person who signed the form and we witness your signature and notarise the form.
- If you are a foreign national, you must submit a notarised copy of your passport. You must arrange for your original passport to be presented to us. We will make a copy and notarise that copy certifying that it is a true and correct copy of the original passport.
- We also understand that some Indian nationals who do not wish to submit their original Indian passport can also submit a notarised copy of their Indian passport instead of the original.
We provide low cost fixed fee services to attest and notarise a copy of your passport. Check out our recent Google Reviews to see what others have to say about us. https://g.page/phanglegal?share
