Coolidge Police Station Criminal Records Office to Close for One Week

The Criminal Records Office at the Coolidge Police Station will be temporarily closed from Monday, February 16 to Friday, February 20, 2026, the Royal Police Force of Antigua and Barbuda announced on Thursday. Normal services are expected to resume on Monday, February 23.

The police urged members of the public who need criminal records services during this period to visit the St. John’s Police Station, where these services will be available.

In their public notice, the Royal Police Force apologized for any inconvenience the closure may cause and thanked the public for their understanding.

Criminal records are often required for employment, travel, and other official matters, and officials are advising individuals with urgent needs to plan ahead and make alternative arrangements through the St. John’s station.

The temporary closure forms part of ongoing administrative adjustments at the Coolidge Police Station, aimed at improving service delivery to the public.

    Five days closure for ‘administrative adjustments’? Hope when they reopen the service faster and more organized

    A one-week closure can disrupt plans for people who already have tight timelines. Advance notice and proper communication will make all the difference.

    Criminal record is serious business people need that for work and travel. Hope St. John’s processing them quick quick.

    At least they give notice. Just make sure St. John’s ready for the extra crowd because that place does already full

    What does that mean

    This is exactly why people get frustrated with public services. A whole week closure for something as important as criminal records? These documents are time-sensitive for jobs and travel. I hope St. John’s is prepared for the influx.

    A little inconvenient, but better service is always welcome. Fingers crossed it’s worth the wait!
