Official Document Solutions

Our Services

We provide comprehensive document services designed to meet official requirements both locally and internationally.

1. Police Clearance Certificate (PCC)

This is our core service. We assist individuals who need an official police clearance certificate from the South African Police Service (SAPS) for immigration, employment, or residency purposes. We handle the administrative submission and collection process on your behalf.

2. Document Legalization & Apostille

If you need to use your police clearance certificate outside of South Africa, it often requires legalization. We manage the entire apostille and embassy attestation process so that your documents are legally recognized in your destination country.

3. Criminal Record Expungement

A past minor offense should not limit your future opportunities. We guide you through the legal application process to clear your name and expunge eligible criminal records from the SAPS database.

Client Protection Commitment

30-Day Application Rejection Protection

While our rigorous pre-submission checks prevent administrative errors, official SAPS Criminal Record Centre (CRC) rejections can occasionally occur due to technical reasons beyond third-party control. If SAPS rejects your application, we stand by you with a half-price re-application rate.

Re-Application Guarantee

50% OFF ADMIN FEE

Resubmit your corrected paperwork through us within 30 calendar days of official SAPS rejection to claim your half-price admin rate.

Most Common Reasons Outside Our Control

SAPS CRC processing rejections usually stem from third-party or technical capture issues during fingerprinting:

Smudged Fingerprints

Captured at local police stations or foreign embassies that fail automated SAPS optical scanner verification.

SAPS Database Discrepancies

Incomplete legacy police records or unlinked historical case numbers requiring manual SAPS archivist intervention.

Incomplete Initial Records

Omitted maiden names, missing middle names, or mismatched identity numbers provided during fingerprinting.

Note: Discount applies exclusively to our agency administrative service fee. Excludes international courier shipping charges and third-party government disbursements.

Knowledge Base & Support

Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions? We have clear answers to help guide your application.

What is a police clearance certificate (PCC)?

A police clearance certificate is an official document issued by the South African Police Service. It states whether an individual has a criminal record registered against them. It is commonly required for visas, residency applications, and employment overseas.

How long does it take to get a police clearance?

The internal processing time depends entirely on the workload of the SAPS Criminal Record Centre (CRC). While we cannot dictate their internal timeline, our optimized logistics ensure that your documents are submitted and retrieved without any administrative delays on our side.

Can I apply for a South African PCC if I am currently overseas?

Yes. We specialize in assisting South African citizens and expats who are currently living abroad. You can have your fingerprints taken locally in your country of residence, send them to us, and we will manage the rest of the process for you.

What is document legalization or an apostille?

If you submit your South African police clearance to a foreign government, they need proof that the document is authentic. An apostille certificate is attached to your PCC to verify its authenticity under the Hague Convention. For non-Hague countries, we arrange embassy attestation.

Are there any hidden fees?

No. We pride ourselves on complete transparency. The price we quote you is the final flat rate for our administrative service. We do not charge extra to expedite your file, as we naturally expedite every application we handle.
