A Police Check is a “point in time check” which means that it does not have a set expiry date.

The time frame depends according to the requesting organisation’s risk mitigation plan.

Applicants will normally be issued with their Police clearance certificates between 1 and 3 days of application. However, it can only take longer if the application has to undergo a 'manual review' by the Australian police authorities.
