Get Your FBI Record Check
An FBI Record Check is commonly required for foreign visa and residency applications, and summarizes any felony criminal arrest and conviction records on file with the FBI.
The FBI check application process depends on your location and whether you are a US citizen or green card holder.
If you are in the United States, you can submit your FBI background check application online directly through the FBI. You can then provide your fingerprints electronically at a participating US Post Office or through an approved FBI Channeler, subject to eligibility requirements.
For applicants outside the United States, you can have your fingerprints taken in your country of residence and submit them to the FBI as part of your application. Depending on your application method, your fingerprint card may need to be mailed to the FBI.
Visit our office for fingerprinting services or send us your completed ink fingerprint card. We will coordinate your FBI check application on your behalf.
Get an Apostille
If you need to use your FBI Record Check internationally, you may require an apostille or document legalization, depending on the destination country.
The US Department of State is responsible for issuing apostilles for FBI Checks and other US federal documents. Your original FBI check must be submitted to the US Department of State, along with the fee and application form. Plan ahead, because the apostille process can take weeks.
