Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the Ontario Provincial Police is limiting criminal record checks to essential workers at this time. Only essential workers, including health care personnel, social service workers, child care workers, and individuals involved in food supply and the maintenance of critical infrastructure will be considered.

The OPP only accepts applications electronically (via email) and fees must be paid by credit card. Applicants may be required to attend their local OPP detachment if fingerprinting is required. Applicants will be contacted by their local detachment to provide identification, make payment and to obtain their results.

Please ensure all personal information is accurate and complete, including name, date of birth and current address. Incomplete, missing or inaccurate information could result in delays in processing your application or your application being returned.

The OPP can only accept and process criminal record checks for applicants that reside in OPP jurisdictions. If you live outside an OPP jurisdiction, please contact your local police service for information.

For questions about Police Record Checks, please contact the OPP via e-mail at: [email protected].
