FBI Background Check Apostille Services
Federal Apostille Processing for International Use
An FBI Background Check Apostille is required when an FBI Identity History Summary must be presented in another country for immigration, residency, employment, citizenship, adoption, marriage, teaching, or visa applications.
Federal apostilles are issued by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. and certify the authenticity of FBI background check documents for use in countries that participate in the Hague Apostille Convention.
Our office assists clients throughout California and the United States with FBI apostille processing, document review, secure FedEx and DHL shipping, and international document authentication.
What Is an FBI Background Check Apostille?
An FBI apostille is a federal authentication certificate attached to an FBI Identity History Summary report. The apostille verifies the document’s authenticity for acceptance by foreign governments, universities, employers, and immigration authorities.
Unlike California apostilles, FBI background checks require federal authentication through the U.S. Department of State.
