– Two recent passport-sized photographs
– A copy of your valid passport
– A copy of your last UAE visa
– The reason for your PCC application
3. Online application
Submit your PCC request online to the relevant authority. You can apply through the official website of the UAE Ministry of Interior or the Dubai Police, depending on the jurisdiction that issued your previous UAE visa.
4. Attach supporting documents
Upload scanned copies of the required documents, including the attested fingerprint card, photographs, passport copy, UAE visa copy, and the reason for your application. Follow the instructions provided on the online application portal for document submission.
5. Pay the fees
Pay the applicable fees for the PCC application. The payment method and amount will be specified on the online application portal. Ensure that you complete the payment process as instructed.
6. Processing and issuance of police clearance certificate
