I got it while I was in USA. Its a very cumbersome process.
For police authorities in UAE(dubai) to issue it they will need your fingerprints and passport copies attested by UAE embassy in Washington.
The fingerprints were obtained at my local police station in new jersey and then they were
(1) notarized by local notary,
(2) then notarized by State of New Jersey notary authority[this step maybe skipped depending on who is doing notary in step (1) above]
(3) And Final attestation was done by the US Dept of State(Washington).
(Pls Note the notarization process has to be done in this sequence only)
After which the documents were sent to UAE embassy in washington and they were attested and sent back to me.
These documents were then forwarded to dubai Police HQ (thro my friends). They obtained the PCC and sent it back to me which saved me the trouble of interacting directly with dubai police/visit to dubai. If you don't have anybody there you can send the info thro mail to dubai police (they do have the info "for getting PCC from outside UAE" on their website www.dubaipolice.gov.ae)
Hope this helps.
Good luck.

Could someone please reply how long it takes to get PCC from UAE?
Let me tell you my scenario. My wife worked in UAE for 8 months from 0/01 to 0/08. Before she left she got a PCC from Dubai and since then being living in the U.S.
If i go for CP i will require a PCC from dubai right?
Is the PCC she acquired before she left acceptable ? or is it considered expired?
Even though she lived there only 8 months and got her PCC before leaving?
I have also read the DSL-1083 and it says and i quote
http://www.foia.state.gov/masterdocs/09fam/0942063X11.pdf
"Police certificates are required from every visa appliant aged 16 years or over for each locality of the country of the applicant's nationality or curren residence where the applicant has resided for at least six months since attaining the age of sixteen. Police certificates are also required from all other countries where the a pplicant has resided for at least one year "
Thus correct me if i am wrong. If my wife is indian and currently resides in the U.S and has resided in the UAE for 8 months she is not required to show a PCC from the UAE?
Thanks for your time
