When applying for Swiss citizenship.

Fingerprinting for RCMP Criminal Record Checks in Switzerland

Fingerprints are the most important part of your RCMP criminal record check, because they let the RCMP search the Canadian national criminal database accurately and confirm your identity with certainty. Your fingerprints must be taken in a specific format. The standard card used is the C-216C, or an equivalent format accepted by the RCMP. There are two ways to get this done from here:

You can visit a Swiss police station or a fingerprinting agency near you. Then, you mail the physical fingerprint cards directly to us in Canada, and we take care of the rest.

If you want a faster or more convenient option, we offer mobile fingerprinting in Zurich, Bern, Geneva, and other locations across the country. One of our trained associates comes to you, takes your prints on the spot using the correct format, and sends everything to Canada directly.

Accredited Fingerprint Submission to the RCMP

When you apply for an RCMP criminal record check from outside Canada, the RCMP only accepts fingerprint submissions from companies that are accredited and based in Canada.

Our team in Switzerland works directly with Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, Canada. This is our own RCMP-accredited processing office. Once your fingerprints reach them, they are digitized and submitted electronically to the RCMP on your behalf.

Because Globeia Incorporated is our own office and not a third party, your fingerprints and documents stay within one chain the entire time. There are no unnecessary handovers, no outside companies handling your file, and no extra steps that could slow things down or create gaps in how your information is handled.

Where Should We Send Your RCMP Criminal Record Check Results

Once your RCMP criminal record check is processed, Globeia sends your results securely to your address in Switzerland. You receive them at your door, ready to use. Need the results sent directly to a third party, such as an employer, immigration authority, educational institution, or any other organization? We can arrange that too. Globeia provides CCRTIS approved consent forms for this purpose. You just sign the form, tell us where the results need to go, and we deliver them directly to that recipient on your behalf.

Authentication and Translation of your Canadian Criminal Record Check in Switzerland

After your criminal record check is ready, you may need it authenticated or translated before it can be used officially. We handle all of this for you.

Apostille: If you need your document recognized in a country that is part of the Hague Convention, Globeia coordinates directly with Global Affairs Canada to complete the apostille process.

Embassy Legalization: If the receiving country is not part of the Hague Convention, Globeia handles this by sending your documents to the relevant embassy or consulate of that country in Switzerland.

Translation: If your document needs to be in another language, we offer sworn and certified translation in over 50 languages, including German, French, Italian, Portuguese, Spanish, Mandarin, and more.

Add any or all of these services to your order if you need your results to be ready for official use right away, without leaving your home.

Frequently
Asked Questions

Who needs an RCMP criminal record check in Switzerland?

Canadian citizens or expats living in Switzerland, and even Swiss nationals who have spent a significant amount of time in Canada, may need a fingerprint-verified RCMP criminal record check. This is common when applying for a Swiss residence permit or citizenship, extending your stay here, or applying to live in a completely different country from Switzerland altogether, such as the USA, Australia, the UK, or New Zealand.

How are my fingerprints taken in Switzerland for a Canadian criminal record check?

We offer mobile fingerprinting across Switzerland. One of our trained associates comes to your location, takes your fingerprints in the correct format required by the RCMP, and sends everything to Canada directly. If you prefer, you can also visit a local Swiss police station or fingerprinting agency and mail the physical cards to us.

Who submits my fingerprints to the RCMP from Switzerland?

Your fingerprints are couriered securely to Canada and submitted by Globeia Incorporated, our own RCMP-accredited office in Toronto. We do not use third-party agents. Your documents stay within one chain in the entire process.

Are digital or electronic fingerprints accepted from Switzerland?

No, from outside Canada, only ink-based fingerprints are accepted. That’s why we offer ink-and-roll fingerprinting services in Switzerland. Once your physical fingerprint cards reach our office in Canada, they are digitized and submitted electronically to the RCMP. You do not need to arrange this or digitize them yourself.

Does Globeia work with Swiss authorities?

Our fingerprinting associates in Switzerland are trained to work with the formats and standards required by the RCMP. If you choose to get fingerprinted at a Swiss police station instead, we provide you with the fingerprinting cards and the complete kit, so you can get fingerprinted there.

When will I receive my RCMP criminal record check in Switzerland?

It can take anywhere from 3 to 10 days for the RCMP to process your results, if no results are found under your fingerprint. This can also stretch to 120 days, as per the verification process, requirements, and workload of RCMP. This is only the processing time; also factor in the international mailing time. Globeia cannot expedite this time, but we keep the process on our end as fast as possible.

Is my personal information kept secure?

Yes. Since Globeia Incorporated in Canada is our own office and not a third-party service, your fingerprints and documents are handled within one chain the entire time. There are no unnecessary handovers or outside companies involved.
