Can anybody in the group tell me how long the Thai police clearance valid?
Answer summary
The validity of a Thai police clearance is typically one year. However, for visa extensions based on employment, the police clearance must not be older than three months. If it exceeds this period, the Immigration Office may reject the application for extension.

Usually the Police clearance is valid for 1 year. But if you are applying for an extension of stay based on employment Then your PC shouldn’t be more than 3 months. If over 3 months the IO won’t accept it and reject your application for extension.

Have it done tomorrow morning at Siam police HQ if u are in Bangkok.

@Robert ******
the staff from the immigration gave me the list of the requirements and i show this to the school staff as everything is written in Thai, i show the list to the school staff. and they (the school staff) told me the requirements in English and i found out that the police clearance also is needed. when i ask them (the school staff) about the expiry of police clearance, they have no idea. as it is 5:30 pm already, they cannot ring the IO. anyway, i will request the school staff again to call the IO for the clarification.

Read the list of the immigration office, as you said they (as in the school staff) also do not know but they know that you need a police clearance. They know or they do not know.
