Mexico

Name of the Police Certificate: Constancia de datos registrales

If you live in Mexico

You can apply to the Mexican authorities, the Fiscalía General de la República (FGR).

The office processing your application will send you a letter with instructions on how to get a police certificate. When you receive the instruction letter, email the visa office in Mexico City to request an official letter.

Take the official letter to the FGR office closest to you to apply for a police certificate.

The instruction letter provided by the processing office is not the same as the official letter that you must submit to the FGR authorities.

  2. Your full name, date of birth, and sex or gender.
  3. The name and address of the police agency where the fingerprints were taken
