Every fee, the usual time and what the office needs
You'll need: a photo of your passport or national ID, fingerprints taken on the official form, your address history, the purpose of the certificate, and a delivery address.
The ZRP fee is different when fingerprints are taken outside Zimbabwe. Your order shows which applies.
Usual times are our current estimate for each step. Offices set their own pace.

ZRP asks for your fingerprints on its clearance form. This is how it works with us.
Your local police station
Checked by two people before anything is lodged
One member of our team reviews the order. A second person checks the documents again. Both checks are recorded against the order, with the time and the name.
When your original reaches our team, it is recorded and checked too.
Lodged at ZRP/CID Harare
Our team in Zimbabwe lodges it and follows it up. The office fee is paid from the money charged at checkout and the receipt is added to your order the same day.
Next: collection. Offices set their own pace.
Collected, then on its way to you
We collect the document and courier it to you, with the tracking number in your order. We message you when we have it and again when the courier has it, with the courier's own scans inside your order.
The Plontiv service fee is charged, USD 65
Only now is our fee charged: the figure shown before you paid anything. The document is added to Documents in the app.
A reminder arrives before the date most organisations stop accepting it.
Many organisations ask for a certificate issued in the last 6 months. Check what yours asks for.
