Police Record Checks for Non-Edmundston Residents

Welcome to the Edmundston Police Force’s online process for persons needing a police screening check. This system allows you to apply for a police screening check 24 hours a day without having to attend our facility. All aspects of the process - including verification of your identification, and fee payment - are handled electronically. If there are no concerns or follow-up required, you will receive an email with instructions on how to securely download your police record check certificate.

You cannot apply on behalf of another person. Authentication questions will be based on the applicant's personal credit file, and the questions are timed to ensure a prompt response and to further enhance security and privacy.

The Edmundston Police Force will return the results of the check to the applicant only. We will not send the results to a third-party organization or employer under any circumstances.

This process is intended for persons living and working in Canada. If you are living/working outside Canada, you should obtain a police check from the RCMP through the submission of fingerprints. Click here for details.

NOTE: You may fail Electronic Identity Verification if any of the following applies to you:

• Have lived in Canada for less than one (1) year, and/or;
• Are under the age of eighteen (18) years, and/or;
• Have no established personal credit history - i.e. no credit cards, bank loans, mortgage, etc. - that is required in order to authenticate your ID using EIV

• Gather required documents. We recommend saving this to your computer before you begin.
• Ensure you have at least 30 minutes to complete the application without interruptions. Some portions of the application are timed and leaving the page may cause errors.
