FBI Background Check Apostille - Fast Nationwide Service
Who needs an FBI background check apostilled?
If a foreign authority has asked for a federal apostille on your background check, they usually mean an apostille on your FBI Identity History Summary.
Common reasons include:
-
Work visas, residency permits, and citizenship applications
-
Teaching abroad (TEFL), university admissions, and study‑abroad programs
-
Adoption, marriage abroad, and long‑term volunteer assignments
-
Professional licensing or corporate postings in Hague Convention countries

Frequently Asked Questions
What’s the difference between a state apostille and a federal apostille?
State apostilles are issued by a state’s Secretary of State for state level documents (e.g., vital records, notarized documents). FBI background checks are federal records, so they require a U.S. Department of State apostille.
Does my FBI background check need to be notarized first?
No. An FBI Identity History Summary is an official federal record. The apostille authenticates the federal signature/seal, so no notarization is required.
Can you apostille an older FBI background check?
Many foreign authorities require the FBI check to be recent (often 90 days). Requirements vary. Tell me your destination country and I’ll advise.
Do I need to mail anything to you?
Often I can work from your official FBI PDF (if properly issued and verifiable). If a physical print is needed for any part of the process, I’ll let you know exactly what to send.
My country of destination is not part of the Hague Apostille Convention. Can you still help?
Yes. For non‑Hague countries, I arrange embassy or consular legalization after federal authentication. I’ll map out the steps for your file.
Do you provide translations?
Absolutely! We offer certified translations in 150+ languages including 10 options for Government Authorized Translation (Sworn Translation) when the country of destination specifically requires it. I’ll match the translation format to your authority’s rules.
