Everything You Need to Know
About FBI Background Check Apostilles
What Is an FBI Background Check Apostille?
An FBI background check apostille is a two-step authentication process. First, you request your FBI Identity History Summary — an official federal record of any criminal history associated with your fingerprints. Second, the U.S. Department of State affixes an apostille certificate confirming it is a genuine U.S. government record recognized internationally.
This makes your FBI background check legally recognized in any of the 120+ countries party to the Hague Convention of 1961. Without the apostille, foreign governments, employers, universities, and adoption agencies will not accept your FBI results as authentic.
Why Use a Professional FBI Apostille Service?
While possible to request an FBI apostille yourself, the process involves navigating multiple federal agencies, using specific forms, meeting exact formatting requirements, and mailing to precise addresses. Errors result in rejections that add weeks or months to your timeline.
FBI Apostille Group has processed hundreds of applications for clients across the United States and internationally. We accept both mail-in fingerprint submissions and digital PDF documents, know exactly what each country requires, and track applications through both the FBI and Department of State efficiently.

Our team prepares FBI apostilles that meet European immigration authority requirements precisely.
FBI Apostille for Latin America: Mexico, Brazil & Colombia
Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, and most of Latin America are Hague Convention signatories requiring apostilled FBI background checks for immigration, work permits, and residency.

We handle all country-specific requirements.
