Prior to requesting your own check please confirm, prior to ordering, if our reports will be acceptable to the agency you are providing the report to.

If your criminal check is for VISA purposes, please confirm with the authorities (before you submit your application) whether a check done through a third-party company such as AIS is acceptable.

Many countries will not provide official government responses. It is your responsibility to confirm if our reports are acceptable and AIS makes no warranties of their acceptance.
