The West Vancouver Police can assist you in obtaining a Certified Criminal Record Check (CCRC) by fingerprints. We will take your fingerprints and submit them to the RCMP in Ottawa. They will conduct a search and in most cases mail the results directly back to you. The service timeline for the fingerprint search by the RCMP is determined by their policy and volume and usually takes 14 to 28 days but in some cases can take up to 120 days.  The letter you receive in the mail from the RCMP is the Certified Criminal Record Check and comes on RCMP letterhead with an embossed seal.

Many foreign agencies require a Certified Criminal Record Check for the following purposes:

• Travel Visa
• Foreign Study
• Foreign Work Permit
• Foreign Employment
• Foreign Volunteer opportunities
• Canadian Immigration
• Permanent Residency
• Canadian Citizenship applications.

Please refer to West Vancouver Police Fingerprint Services for further information.

Not what you are looking for?? Perhaps you need a Police Information Check which is often required when seeking volunteer and employment opportunities within Canada.

If you are living outside of Canada and require a Certified Criminal Record Check,  please visit the RCMP website for further details.

West Vancouver Police does not offer a name and date of birth “Conviction Only Check / Criminal Record Check”. If you require a Criminal Record Check for convictions only, this can be obtained through an accredited private company.
