Frequently asked questions

What is the use of a criminal record certificate?
It is commonly requested for: working with minors (required by law), obtaining visas or residence permits abroad, participating in adoption processes, accessing certain public and private sector jobs, and notarial or registry procedures.
How long is the criminal record certificate valid?
There is no legal expiration date, but most authorities and companies accept it if it has been issued within the last 3-6 months. For international visas and procedures, they usually require it to be less than 3 months old.
What happens if I have cancelled criminal records?
Criminal records are automatically canceled after a legal period (between 6 months and 30 years) depending on the crime. Once canceled, they do not appear in the standard certificate. You can request early cancellation if you meet the requirements.
Can someone else apply for me?
Yes, with explicit authorization signed and accompanied by a copy of the applicant's DNI. A legal representative (attorney, procurator, notary) can also do it with proper documentation.
Do I need a criminal record certificate to work with children?
Yes, since 2015 (Organic Law 1/1996). Any person who works regularly with minors (teachers, monitors, sports coaches, volunteers) must present the negative criminal record for sex-related offenses.
