Georgian Police Clearance Certificate for the UK

Why the UK Requires a Police Clearance Certificate from Georgia

If you have lived in Georgia and are now applying for a UK visa, settlement (Indefinite Leave to Remain), or any immigration status through UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI), you may be required to submit a Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) from Georgia as part of your application.

UK immigration rules require applicants to provide police certificates from every country where they have lived for 12 months or more over the past 10 years. Georgia is no exception. A missing or incorrectly prepared Georgian PCC is a common reason for UKVI application complications and delays.

Through PCC.ge, you can obtain your official Georgian Police Clearance Certificate 100% remotely — without traveling to Georgia — with certified English translation and Apostille included.

Who Needs a Georgian Police Clearance Certificate for the UK?

You likely need a Georgian PCC for the UK if you:

  • Are applying for a UK Skilled Worker Visa and previously lived in Georgia

  • Are applying for a UK Family Visa (spouse, partner, or dependent) and lived in Georgia for 12+ months

  • Are applying for Indefinite Leave to Remain (ILR) or British citizenship and previously resided in Georgia

  • Are applying for a UK Student Visa and lived in Georgia for 12 months or more

  • Are applying for the UK Global Talent Visa or Innovator Founder Visa

  • Lived in Georgia for 12 months or more in the past 10 years

Important: UKVI requires that the police certificate be issued by the official Georgian government authority — the Ministry of Internal Affairs — and be apostilled for legal recognition in the UK.

What UKVI Accepts

UK Visas and Immigration accepts the Georgian Criminal Record Certificate issued by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia, provided it is:

  • Official — issued by the Service Agency of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Georgia

  • Apostilled — under the Hague Convention (the UK is a Hague member state)

  • Translated — certified translation into English

  • Recent — UKVI typically requires the certificate to be no more than 6 months old at the time of submission

PCC.ge provides all of these in one complete package. You do not need to coordinate separate providers for the certificate, apostille, and translation.

Validity Period

UKVI generally requires that a Police Clearance Certificate be issued within the last 6 months. Some specific visa categories may have stricter requirements. We recommend confirming the exact requirement with your UK immigration lawyer or UKVI directly, and ordering close to your application date.
