Extract from HURU Terms & Conditions
Disclaimers and Purposes for Which a HURU CRC May be Used
The HURU Criminal Record Check (CRC) is conducted by Afiswitch, who holds the exclusive right to perform fingerprint clearances on behalf of SAPS using the SAPS fingerprint database. It is important to note that a HURU CRC is not the same as a police clearance certificate and is only used to verify an applicant’s previous conviction and/or pending trial status.
A HURU CRC can be utilised for a variety of purposes including:
- Pre- or post-employment screening;
- Applications for SACE, NCR, or SAIT; and/or
- Ride-hailing companies that have approved the HURU CRC.
Please note that a HURU CRC CANNOT be used for the following purposes:
- Professional Driving Permit (PrDP) applications;
- Applications for registration with the Private Security Industry Regulatory Authority (PSiRA);
- Firearm clearance; and/or
- Visa applications (including for Visa Facilitation Services Global (VFS Global)).
It is the responsibility of the individual requesting and paying for a HURU CRC to determine if the report provided by HURU is suitable for their specific needs. HURU and its partners will not be held responsible for any issues arising from an individual procuring our Service without first determining if the HURU report will be accepted. In cases where the HURU report is not accepted, HURU and its partners will not provide a refund.
Each User acknowledges and agrees that HURU does not make any representation as to the accuracy or correctness of any information transmitted to or made available to it in respect of each Candidate as contained on any SAPS system.
