Info Cubic offers an Illicit Activity Database search in lieu of a traditional criminal search as one is not available in Singapore. This proprietary database will pull information from publicly available resources. While this search will provide insight into an individual’s past, it should not be considered a true, comprehensive criminal history review.

The official criminal record search in Singapore is the “Certificate of Clearance” through the Singapore Police Force. However, the Singapore Police Force has provided guidance that under the Registration of Criminal Act, Chapter 268, the Police must ensure that access to these records is properly controlled. They do not accede to request by private organizations or individuals to screen a person for criminal records either by themselves or through company or organizations. Under the Registration of Criminals (Amendment) Bill 2005, certain offenses automatically become “spent” after a period of 5 years provided no further offenses occur during that period (other parameters may also apply).

This search confirms the individual’s identity by verifying the authenticity of a machine-readable passport.
