Criminal record check?

Sorry this repeats various previous threads - but I’m looking for an update, which may be of use to others if it’s near the top…

Do I need a criminal record check? I think from what I’ve read here, that I don’t, but any up to date info would be appreciated.

I’ve got the non-impediment, not married, certificate and am ready to take it to MOFA in Taipei, then go to the registry office and do the deed…

From what I can remember, you don’t need the check for the marriage, only the JFRV. Although that could have all changed in the last year…

  1. No impediment to marriage for marriage certificate.
  2. Criminal record check for visa.
