National police checks for Victorian residents and employers. Processed through our ACIC-accredited partner, results within 48 hours.
Overview
National police checks for Victoria are processed through the Australian Criminal Intelligence Commission (ACIC), which consolidates records from Victoria Police and all other Australian police agencies. The result covers criminal history held across all states and territories - not just Victoria.
RefChecks fulfils police checks through our ACIC-accredited partner, providing legally recognised certificates accepted by Victorian government agencies, employers, and licensing bodies. Victorian industries including healthcare, education, community services, and security regularly require national police checks for both pre-employment screening and compliance purposes.
Results are typically returned within 48 hours, though some checks take longer if manual review by Victoria Police is required. The certificate is delivered by email as a PDF.
