Front Counter Services
Table of Contents
Introduction
Anyone in Burnaby can report a crime by attending the main detachment in person or by calling the non-emergency line at 604-646-9999.
Some services, such as Canadian Police Certificates and Certified Criminal Record Checks, fingerprinting, and Police Information Checks have associated administration and processing fees and require specific types of ID. Please take note of the associated fees, accepted payment methods, and required ID before visiting the detachment or booking an appointment.
The Royal Canadian Mounted Police Access to Information and Privacy Branch (ATIP) provides formal responses to access to information requests under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act. These requests are not processed at the front counter.
Accepted forms of ID
Two pieces of acceptable ID (one of which must be Canadian Government issued photo ID) are required for all services provided at Front Counter and at Community Policing Offices. For ID to be considered acceptable, it must have the person's legal name, date of birth and it cannot be expired.
Please note, the new BC Services Card combines the BC Driver’s Licence and Care Card. This Services Card is considered one form of ID. Two pieces of accepted ID, one of which must be a photo ID, is required for all services provided at the front counter.
