Is there any South American country which does not require proof of "No Criminal Record"?

Question

I have a misdemeanor record from 27 years ago. One charge. I pled guilty. It was petit theft. I stole some beer. I recently received teaching certification for TESL and would like to teach in South America. Is there any country which does require proof of "No Criminal Record" when applying for a work visa?

Answer 1

Try the procedures in the link below. You may be surprised to find information that long ago may be long gone.

Also, a lot of background checks only go back 5, 7, or 10 years.

good luck
