Better information before another attempt

Professional Skip Tracing Worldwide

Need to serve someone but do not have their current address? PCA offers professional skip tracing for $290 in most countries worldwide. A full name together with a date of birth and/or a previous known address can provide the starting point for research into a current address. One team can coordinate the search and the next service attempt.

Why PCA

A useful trace should lead to an informed next step.

Repeated attendance at an outdated address wastes time and increases cost. A focused trace uses lawfully available records and the information you already hold to research a current address and distinguish the intended recipient from people with similar names.

PCA connects the search to the underlying court file. We explain material limitations, return useful findings and, when instructed, coordinate service at a viable address. Coverage, record access and results vary by country; finding a current address is not guaranteed.

Assignments we handle

Practical support for the complete file.

Address development

Research into current and associated address information for individuals who may have moved.

How it works

One accountable process from request to completion.

01

Tell us what you know

Start with the person’s full name and a date of birth and/or previous known address. Tell us the legal purpose and likely country. Only share information you are lawfully entitled to provide; we can arrange how to receive sensitive details after the initial enquiry.

02

The trace is scoped

We assess whether the available information is sufficient and confirm the fee and likely deliverable.

03

Research is completed

Relevant databases and lawful information sources are reviewed for actionable address indicators.

04

Results inform service

We return the findings and, when instructed, coordinate service at the most supportable location.

Frequently asked questions

Professional Skip Tracing Worldwide questions

Do I need both a date of birth and a previous address?

Not necessarily. A full name plus either a date of birth or a previous known address may be enough to begin assessing the search. Having both can help distinguish the correct person. PCA confirms whether more information is needed before accepting the assignment.

Can you trace an address outside Canada?

Yes. PCA can coordinate professional skip tracing in most countries worldwide. Available sources, lawful access and the detail that can be returned vary by destination, so we confirm the scope before starting.

How is skip tracing priced?

Professional skip tracing is $290 before applicable tax. Clients are billed in their own currency. We review the available identifiers and jurisdiction and confirm the complete price, scope and likely deliverable before work begins. Process serving is a separate service. A successful result is not guaranteed.

Is a successful result guaranteed?

No responsible provider can guarantee that every person can be located. The quality of available identifiers and records affects the result, and PCA explains material limitations.

Can PCA serve the person after locating them?

Yes. Integrating the trace with process serving is often the most efficient route because the findings can immediately inform the attendance plan.
