A police clearance certificate in Dubai is a necessary document to be submitted as proof to state that the person applying for a visa or such immigration and other services, is not involved in any criminal activities, violation of law or breach of trust, or any other illegal activities in the past or the present. The police clearance certificate ensures that the person in question has a clean record both in their home country and as well as in any country of their residence.
Police clearance certificates for immigration have been made mandatory by several countries because the laws regulating the entry and employment of overseas passengers are not restricted by strict laws in some other nations. The countries where a police clearance certificate is made mandatory for entry are categorized as ECR countries or Emigration Check Required Countries.
