About Belmont Police Station
Belmont Police Station is part of WA Police Force and serves Belmont and the surrounding area within Cannington District. It covers Ascot, Belmont, Cloverdale, Kewdale, Perth Airport, Redcliffe, Rivervale, and Welshpool. Officers based there investigate a broad range of matters, from traffic and drink driving to assault, family violence and restraining order matters, drug offences, stealing, fraud, and other criminal matters.
Although named for Belmont, this station is located on Abernethy Road in the adjoining suburb of Cloverdale.
Belmont Police Station operates limited front-counter hours rather than around the clock. Outside those hours, urgent matters in the area are handled through Cannington Police Station or by calling 131 444. If you are asked to attend for an interview, it will usually be arranged during opening hours, which gives you time to speak with a lawyer before you go.
People attend for a range of reasons, from a voluntary interview to answering bail or giving a statement, and some are brought in after an arrest. In each case, knowing your rights before you make any decision is central to protecting your matter.
Have Police Asked You To Attend Belmont Police Station?
There is a widespread assumption that a voluntary attendance means you are not under suspicion. In reality, police often hold these interviews as part of an ongoing investigation.
If police have called you, issued a notice to attend, or asked you to participate in a recorded interview, you should obtain legal advice before speaking with them.
Our criminal defence lawyers can explain:
- Whether you are required to attend;
- Whether you should participate in an interview;
- Your right to silence;
- Potential criminal charges; and
- The best strategy to protect your interests.
Arrested And Taken Into Custody At Belmont Police Station?
Being arrested and taken into custody does not remove the legal rights available to you. People arrested in the area are often taken to Cannington Police Station or another staffed facility, so it is worth confirming exactly where you or a family member is being held.
Before agreeing to an interview, making admissions, or going along with certain police requests, you should first speak with a lawyer.

Legal advice at an early stage can stop mistakes that might later be relied on as evidence in court.
