Has any, as a non-Thai national, recently applied for a Thai Police Certificate from the Special Branch Bureau in Bangkok? The document requirements on their website say "certified passport copies". Can I kindly check if this mean: certified by ourselves by signing on each page of the copies, or, certified by an external professional/lawyer? Thanks!

Hey everyone, ciao!

Thank you for letting me join this group! I used to live in Bangkok back in 2015, hope all of you living there are staying healthy!

So, since I lived in Thailand for more than 6 months, I was asked to get a Thai Police Certificate in order to obtain a US visa. I wanted to ask here if anyone tried to request and obtain a Thai Police Certificate from abroad? (I'm in Italy at the moment)

Also, considering that I had a work permit for less than 6 months, while using a non-b visa for 3 months and multiple tourist visas (I lived in Thailand for a total of a year and a half), I was wondering if in your opinion I would still need to obtain this Certificate.

Not sure this makes sense, but thank you so much for any help!

What are the chances of my husband and me getting approved for a Non-B for teaching in Penang WITHOUT a Thai Police Certificate? Has anybody done it recently?

We have everything else- including our police clearance from USA (our passport country.) The reason we ask is we just learned of this requirement yesterday... Hours after arriving here in Penang.

We moved to Thailand 2 months ago and have a sprinkling of tourist visas stamps from over the years. Not sure if that is related info.

Secondly, is there any reason we should not just try tomorrow (since we are already here) and hope for the best? Are there repercussions we should know about from being rejected? We want to do things right- we were just given bad info before flying here. TIA.
