How to obtain a police certificate

Israel

Do I need to provide a police certificate when applying for permanent residence?
Yes, however, the police certificate, Teudat Yosher, is directly released upon the applicant’s request either to the Canadian Embassy in Tel Aviv or an Israeli embassy abroad.

How and where do I obtain one?

If you live in Israel
Applicants should apply for an Israeli police certificate at the nearest police station. Applicants must complete application form #3019 and provide a photocopy of their passport’s first page as well as present their identity card or passport and their visa file number. A designated representative may apply for a police certificate on the applicant’s behalf with an authorization letter from the applicant (notarization is not necessary).

Applicants residing in Jerusalem (East or West) or in the Golan Heights should apply for an Israeli police certificate.

If you live outside Israel
Applicants may apply for a police certificate at the nearest Israeli embassy or consulate. Police certificates may be sent to either the Canadian Embassy in Tel Aviv or to the Israeli Embassy or consulate abroad.
