How do i obtain an Indonesian police certificate?
I think the police certificate here means that you need to get a letter from the police that explains you never involve in criminal activities (in Indonesia they call it Surat Kelakuan Baik). I think they require this before you get a married certificate. What you need to do is go to the local police in your fiancee’s hometown and ask that you want to make “Surat Kelakuan Baik”. The documents that you should bring: your passport, your fiancee’s passport/ID and your fiancee’s family card (Surat Keluarga). Theoritically, it’s not supposed to be hard to obtain this certificate. If some officers give you a hard time, just give them 20,000-25,000 rupiah (about USD 2-3) and tell them this is for your coffee/cigarette money. I think your fiancee should be familiar with this kind a practices. Hopefully, you don’t have to do this bribery thing. I heard the new government has cleaned up these kind a practices these days. Good luck and congratulations.
