Police Certificate, disqualifying offences

I was asked to apply for a position in Kuwait with the oil company. I will be doing senior management for a very specialized field. I was looking through all the document requirements and was reading the police clearance requirements. I have yet to see anything that actually goes into details, they just say "must submit a clearance document". I have a criminal mischief charge from back in college in 1987. It was a deferred probation sentence with the charges eventually being dismissed. I have requested my FBI report to see how this is actually listed there.

Does any "blemish" bar you from gaining a visa, or do they look at length of time, nature of offence, etc? Does anyone here have any direct experience dealing with this?

Thanks,

The only problem you will have with the PCC (Police Clearance Check) is if you have any criminal convictions (theft, robbery, or worse), or if you have any DUI/DWI convictions.

There won't be any problem if all you have is a criminal mischief charge from 27 years ago.

I'm looking at going through the same process myself
I have a DUI conviction from 20yrs ago. Do you think this could cause problems?
