Amend your personal information

If you have accessed documents held by the Queensland Police Service (QPS) and found that your personal information is inaccurate, incomplete, out-of-date or misleading, you can apply to have it amended.

Applying for an amendment

To update your information, you will need to submit a completed application form.

You will also need to:

What if I don’t agree with the QPS decision?

Your internal review application will then be referred to a senior officer for decision.

Applications for external review should be addressed to:
