How to obtain a police certificate(Ivory Coast)
Do I need to provide a police certificate when applying for Canada permanent residence?
Yes. However, foreign residents can only obtain certificates if they have lived in the Ivory Coast during the last five years.
How and where do I obtain one?
If you live in Ivory Coast
You have to apply for a certificate at the court in the region where you were born. You must provide your birth certificate and your residence certificate or an address on the back of your application. You must also pay the applicable fees.
If you are not a citizen of Ivory Coast, you can get a copy of a police record only if you have lived in Ivory Coast for at least five years.
Note: A certificate is valid for three months.
If you live outside Ivory Coast
You can get a certificate only if you are in Ivory Coast.
