Australian Police Clearance & Certificates – Online & On Demand

There’s no faster way to get an Australian Police Clearance than with the team here at CVCheck. We’re a National Police Checking Service (NPCS) Accredited Agency, which means we meet strict criteria from the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC), including verified company legitimacy and certain security requirements.

Here at CVCheck we call them Australian Police Clearance & Certificates, and sometimes they can be called National Police Check or even a Criminal History Check. No matter what they’re called, they all still verify your information from the same ACIC database. Our secure online service allows you to easily organise verification checks and clearances from your home or office. Your results are then efficiently distributed electronically, providing you with instant access to your National Police Clearance.

  • Fast and 100% online
  • Secure and privacy assured

Please note: Australian Police Clearances cannot be used for Immigration, Visa or IVF applications.

* All turnaround times are estimated working times for Australian checks and are provided as a guide only. Turnaround times are based on our experience of the time taken for the majority of these checks to be delivered. However, CVCheck is reliant on third parties for supply of information, and in some cases those third parties may take longer to supply that information. Accordingly, CVCheck does not give any time guarantees for any checks or packages. It is CVCheck’s policy and practice to keep you informed as much as possible if there are any unusual delays.
