The PCC serves to verify if an applicant has any criminal convictions or ongoing investigations. Its necessity often depends on the employer’s internal policies and the nature of the job.

To obtain a PCC, individuals can apply through the Dubai Police website or the Ministry of Interior’s official site.
The application process requires valid identification documents, including a passport and Emirates ID, along with fingerprints and payment of applicable fees.
For further assistance, applicants can consult the official websites of Dubai Police or the Ministry of Interior for detailed guidance on obtaining the certificate.
