FBI Criminal Background Check from UAE

Get Your FBI Background Check from UAE Through Globeia

If you are a US resident or expat in UAE, you will need an FBI background check as a part of your application for jobs, visas, immigration, adoption, licensing, or other official purposes. Globeia makes it easy to get your FBI Identity History Summary Check without leaving the UAE.

Our team here can take your fingerprints through a doorstep appointment in the UAE, or accept fingerprints you've already had done, as long as they're on an FBI-compliant FD-258 or FD-1164 card. From there, your cards are mailed to our processing office Globeia Inc. in the USA, which reviews, prepares, and submits them directly to the FBI on your behalf. You send us your details once, and we take it from there, fingerprinting, FBI submission, apostille, all of it, until the finished document lands in your hands.

FBI Background Check Apostille and Attestation From UAE

Once your FBI background check is issued, it will need to be apostilled or further legalized to be considered fully valid, depending on your destination country.

Hague Convention countries (like, UK, Germany, Australia, Japan): Your FBI background check will need an apostille. Globeia can process this on your behalf through the US Department of State's Office of Authentications.

Non-Hague countries (like, UAE, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait): Your FBI background check will need to be legalized instead of apostilled. In this case, if you want to use your report here, UAE authorities will also require further attestation by an embassy or consulate. Globeia can coordinate this entire process for you.

Frequently
Asked Questions

What is the purpose of fingerprinting for an FBI background check?

Fingerprints are used to confirm your identity and check if you have any criminal record on file with the FBI. They're matched against the FBI's national database to generate your Identity History Summary

How long does it take to get the FBI background check results in UAE?

For US citizens and green card holders, it usually takes 1-3 days. For non-citizens or non-green card holders, it can take 2-3 weeks, since additional verification steps are required. This processing time is excluding the international mailing time and other factors.

Can I get fingerprinted at a UAE police station and use that for my FBI application, or does it have to be a specific service?

Yes, a UAE police station can take your fingerprints, but they need to be rolled correctly on an FBI-compliant card like the FD-258 or FD-1164 card. If the station isn't familiar with international requirements, there's a higher chance of rejection. Which is why choosing a reliable fingerprinting provider like Globeia is highly recommended.

Can the FBI reject my fingerprints?

Yes. If your fingerprints are smudged, incomplete, or not taken on an approved FD-258 or FD-1164 card, the FBI can reject them. This is why accurate, professional fingerprinting is important for obtaining an FBI background check.

Can I use my FBI background check for a UAE visa or job application?

Yes, many UAE employers, visa authorities, and government departments accept a properly attested FBI background check as valid proof of your criminal record status.

What happens if my FBI background check comes back with a criminal record?

The report will list any matching criminal history found in the FBI database. Depending on your purpose, the receiving authority will decide how to proceed based on the details listed.

Can I get an FBI background check for a close family member?

No. FBI background checks must be requested by the individual themselves, since they require the person's own fingerprints and personal ID.

I already have an old FBI background check from 2 years ago. Can I just get that apostilled instead of doing the whole process again?

Most receiving authorities only accept reports issued within the last 3-6 months, so a 2-year-old report likely won't be accepted, even if apostilled. You'll need to apply for a new, fresh FBI background check report.
