If you have lived abroad for more than 6 months in the last 5 years, then we require an Overseas Police Check that has been professionally translated into English.
You need to apply for your Overseas Police check certificate directly from the country you resided in.
Each country has it’s own application process for obtaining a certificate which is detailed on the gov.uk website.
