Police certificate help outside China
Can anyone help with some information as to where I can apply for a Police Certificate from outside China?
I am currently in immigration proceedings to the USA and as I lived in China for 3 years I have to provide a Police Certificate.
I have found a few contacts but none of them seem to cover the Shenzhen, Shekou area. I don't have any contacts in China anymore and I wondered if anyone had any information they could share?
I have contacted the US Consulate here in the UK but they haven't gotten back to me and I can't get hold of anyone on the phone.
Many many thanks for any assistance. Marie

Sorry for that! I am English and lived in Shekou near Shenzhen for 3 years, 2001 - 2004, and I meant in my post that I have contacted the Chinese Consulate here in the UK but they haven't gotten back to me. Thank you

No problem. I don't know about getting a police certificate for your stay in China but would it not suffice for your US visa application to have a police certificate from the UK, which is perhaps easier to obtain and more relevant?

Hi there, I have one from the UK but for the US I also have to provide one from any country I have lived in for more than 1 year since I was 16. I have moved around a bit and it's proving a problem to find out how to get one from China.
As I mentioned above I found a company in Beijing but they don't cover the area I lived in.

Re: Police certificate help outside China
I wanted to update my attempts to obtain a Police certificate outside China. This was needed for my US immigration as I had lived in China 2001 - 2004. At the London embassy the consular officer told me it would be easy - hah!
I have to say that as I had lost my residency permit which is vital to show you have lived there, I secured the services of an attorney in Beijing. They were able to put together a very detailed case as to why I could not obtain a police certificate which I submitted to the US Embassy and along with a sworn affidavit they accepted this and finally issued my immigration visa.
