Police Clearance Certificate Montreal
Online CPIC & Fingerprinting
Good to know: Our Montreal office handles all fingerprinting. Meanwhile, if your purpose does not require fingerprints, you can apply online for a name-based CPIC anywhere in Canada.
Start Your Check
⚠️ Important: Use fingerprints when your purpose includes any of the following:
- Immigration to Canada or the United States
- Canadian or foreign citizenship (Spain, Australia, Italy, etc.)
- Adoption, Vulnerable Sector, or a legal request that specifies fingerprints
In that case, our team completes fingerprint-based certificates in person at the Montreal office. Otherwise—if fingerprints are not required—use our Canada-wide CPIC application.
For clarity, review official guidance: RCMP · IRCC – Police Certificates
Fingerprinting at our Montreal office

Next, visit our Montreal location. You can:
- Additionally, walk in during office hours—no appointment required.
- Furthermore, bring valid government photo ID and any forms or reference numbers.
- Finally, receive bilingual service (English & Français).
