There are 3 kinds of police record checks:

• a criminal record check
• a criminal record and judicial matters check
• a vulnerable sector record check

A peace bond won’t appear on your criminal record. It will appear on your criminal record and judicial matters check and vulnerable sector record check for as long as it is in effect.

Criminal record checks

A peace bond doesn’t appear on your criminal record. And, entering into a peace bond doesn’t give you a criminal record. One of the reasons you may agree to a peace bond is to avoid a criminal record or conviction.

But, be aware if you don’t follow the conditions of your peace bond, you may be charged with a criminal offence. If you’re found guilty, you could go to jail, and get a criminal record.
