The Certificade de Antecedentes Personales is available to Ecuadorians who are over the age of 18, who are physically present in Ecuador, who possess a Cedula de Identidad or passport and who apply in person at the Jefaturas y Subjefaturas Provinciales de la Policia Judicial.
The applicant's passport size photo is glued to the certificate and is covered with a seal. Those who are said to have no record will have a stamp 'Negativo' with the date on the form and will have a validity of three months from the issuance date. A negative certificate does not necessarily mean the subject has no police record, since police records can be purged upon the subject's request without judicial permission.
Ecuadorians residing outside of Ecuador can obtain their Police Record by having a close relative that lives in Ecuador submit a request. The relative will show his/her cedula as proof of relationship to obtain the police record. This form will contain the same information and may be issued within 2 days for a fee of $17.00 payable at Puente Portete Y Avenida Barcelona S/N, in Guayaquil, or at the Office of Archivo Central (Police Central Archive) located at Ave. Cuenca and Mideros St. in Quito. Only Ecuadorians can apply to Jefaturas and Subjefaturas Provinciales de la Policia Judicial. The applicant must first provide full names (paternal and maternal), cedula number and one photo.
