Document retrieval in Yilan County

For residents of Yilan County, including Yilan City, Luodong, Toucheng and Su'ao, we apply at the local household registration offices, police stations and schools with your authorization, then combine the documents with translation and authentication at the Bureau of Consular Affairs (BOCA) headquarters in Taipei when they are needed abroad.

Request a quote for Document retrieval

Since the Hsuehshan Tunnel, Yilan is within easy reach of Taipei, so documents from Yilan and Luodong reach BOCA and the representative offices quickly.

Many legalization projects start with a document you do not have yet: a recent household registration transcript, a police criminal record certificate, a transcript from a university you left years ago, or a birth certificate from the country where you were born. Requesting these from outside the right office or country takes time and local knowledge.

Every document is different, so we quote each request individually. Send us a scan and you will receive a fixed price.

Questions and answers

Do I need to come to your office from Yilan County?

No. Clients in Yilan County can send scans for a quote by email and courier originals to us. When a step requires you in person, such as signing before a notary, we arrange it within the jurisdiction of the Yilan District Court.

Can you obtain a document without my authorization?

No. Personal documents such as household registration transcripts or police records can only be requested by you or by someone you authorise in writing. We prepare the authorization for you to sign.

I have left Taiwan. Can I still get my police record certificate?

Usually yes. People who have lived in Taiwan can apply from abroad, and we can assist with the application and the subsequent authentication so that the certificate is accepted in your new country.
