Know more about why to get a police clearance certificate

Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) is an essential document if you are planning to go abroad. It is evidence that you have a clean record. It is a legal document issued to Nepali passport applicants. Most of the countries require Police Clearance Report in Emigration points. Then it is presented to the Consular department such that it will verify the profile of the applicant.

Whether you are going abroad for studies or traveling around the countries, or as a working immigrant, a police clearance report is a must. Police clearance is required to prove that you have no criminal record covering the period of stay in a country. It validates your character as an individual, whether you are a law-abiding citizen or not. It shows how ethical and responsible you are as a citizen, immigrant, visitor, worker, or student.

This facility by Nepal Police is admirable since it could save time for many people who require the police clearance report to travel abroad. As we can see, not only the private/ corporate sectors but also governmental units and departments are joining their hands in the acknowledgment of the vision regarding the Digital Economy.
