The assistant consul at the Consulate of Tunisia in Montreal stated during a 24 September 2003 telephone interview that any Tunisian citizen living in Canada can obtain a copy of his criminal record (Bulletin No. 3) without having to go to Tunisia. He merely has to go to a Tunisian consulate, complete the application, and attach his birth certificate, a photocopy of the first three pages of his passport, or a photocopy of his national identification card, and a photocopy of his consular card (Consulate of Tunisia 24 Sept. 2003). This process carries a fee of CDN$2.60 (ibid.).

This Response was prepared after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the Research Directorate within time constraints. This Response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum.
