In line with the UAE Cabinet Decree No.1/8 of 2017, Good Conduct Certificate is a mandatory requirement for all prospective employees in UAE with effect from 4th February 2018.

A Good Conduct Certificate is primarily a Police Clearance Certificate issued to a person by relevant Police station in the country of domicile in connection with his/her criminal clearance for a certain period-basically immediate past five year period.

Applicants, who were born and raised in UAE, are not required to have a Good Conduct Certificate, YET, if such an applicant had spent sometimes in Sri Lanka or in a third country before applying for a job in UAE, should produce a Good Conduct Certificate related to their previous domicile.

The fastest way of getting a Good Conduct Certificate is to applying to relevant Police station in Sri Lanka by the applicant in person.

Good Conduct Certificate should be attested by both Consular Division/Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the UAE Embassy in Colombo prior to its submission to the employer.

In the event of an applicant is unable to visit Consular Affairs Division/Ministry of Foreign Affairs in person for attestation, he/she can appoint a proxy for this purpose through an authorization letter. A format for an authorization letter is attached.
