Request Letter for Police Clearance Certificate by Passport Holder

A Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) is generally issued to Indian Passport holders in cases where they have applied for Residential Status or going for Employment or Long term visa or for immigration to another country.

Police Clearance Certificates are not issued to persons going abroad on Tourist Visa. It is not needed in that case.

If you need a PCC, then you have to apply to the Police Station in your locality assigned for passport purposes. Please enquire with the Passport office to find out which Police station is assigned for the resident address of yours.

Different police stations of various localities may have separate formats of application form for applying for PCC. Please check with them to find out. In case they suggest you to write an application letter on your own with all the necessary details and attach the necessary documents then you can do so.

Government has also started an initiative to make this process fully digital so that the passport holders can apply online for issuance of PCC.

The following format of application letter could be used in case there is not already a prescribed form.
