What is a Certificate of Good Conduct in Kenya?

A certificate of Good Conduct is a legal document  issued by the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DIC). They are also know as police clearance certificates. Police Clearance Certificates are issued either bearing information that an individual does not have any criminal record OR in the event that a criminal record has been traced, such certificate shall bare all the offences with which such person was charged with including the results of such case(s).

However, in the event that the case(s) reflected on the Police Clearance Certificate are still Pending Before Court (P.B.C), the Police Clearance Certificate shall be issued bearing the offences with remarks ‘OUTSTANDING’ in the results column (see the attached sample certificates below).

Criminal Records are derived from Fingerprints recorded from all persons charged with serious offences which include all Penal Code offences which are subsequently forwarded to C.I.B for inclusion in the Criminal Database. The records include all adult persons who have committed serious offences, all children of 12 years and above who have committed serious offences.
