Accredited
RCMP-accredited Canadian office, FBI-compliant U.S. office

Whether you are in Dubai Marina, Business Bay or elsewhere in Dubai, a trained Globeia associate will come to your apartment, villa or office. Nothing is passed to an agent: the FBI Background Check and the RCMP Criminal Record Check are processed through Globeia's own U.S. and Canadian offices.

Fingerprinting, police clearance, legalization and legal Arabic translation are provided by a single team, without middlemen, starting from AED 700.

Book AppointmentHow it works

Face ID plus Emirates ID or passport check at every appointment. A Letter of Identity Verification comes with every set of fingerprints. Your details stay on a platform audited to SOC 1 and SOC 2 standards, and our Washington, DC office works directly with U.S. federal processes.

Fingerprinting for every purpose

We take fingerprints for any purpose. For police clearances, we can run the whole process.

Police clearance, FINRA and professional licensing, ADEK and DoH registrations, employment, adoption, immigration: whatever the purpose, the appointment in Dubai is the same, and it happens wherever you are. If you need a police clearance, we will happily take just the fingerprints. But the clearance itself is a six-step process between the UAE and the issuing country, with several authorities in between. Doing half of it yourself means splitting one file across two countries. Doing all of it with Globeia means it is done in one place, by one team, in our own offices.

Option A · Fingerprints only

Get Your Fingerprints Done. You Handle the Rest.

We collect your fingerprints on the required card, verify your identity, and provide the Letter of Identity Verification. After that, you manage the remaining steps between countries.

  • ✕You find a courier and ship the original card abroad
  • ✕You submit to the authority, on its form, in its sequence
  • ✕You arrange the apostille or embassy legalization in the issuing country and ship again
  • ✕You find a legal translator the receiving authority will accept
  • ✕One miss at any authority sends the file back to Step 1

Fine if your employer or lawyer is handling the rest. Most people are not in that position.

The authorities set the clock. You control only when Step 1 happens.

Book your visit now and the remaining steps start the same week.

One clearance, two ways to get it

RCMP Criminal Record Check from Dubai: A Client's Journey

Meet Rania. She lives in Dubai and needs an RCMP Criminal Record Check for her DHA nursing licence. Rania is a composite of the clients we meet every week. Here is how her clearance progresses when she arranges the fingerprints and manages the rest herself, and how it progresses when Globeia handles the complete file.

On her own

A Dubai fingerprint vendor and a missing stamp

  1. Week 1
    A vendor in Al Karama.

    The vendor is not RCMP-accredited and records her prints on an FD-258, which is the U.S. card.

  2. Week 5
    Wrong form, back to the start.

    Her RCMP Criminal Record Check requires a C-216C, so the file has to restart from Step 1.

  3. Week 12
    Result in hand, not usable.

    It arrives at her JLT mailbox without Global Affairs Canada authentication.

  4. Week 16
    The embassy step missed.

    She has it authenticated in Ottawa, but no one mentions the UAE Embassy. MOFA in Dubai declines to accept it.

  5. Week 23
    Licence on hold.

    Three couriers to Ottawa, a second set of fingerprints, and a nursing position held open for months.

With Globeia

One accredited route from her Dubai apartment

  1. Day 1
    Prints in Dubai Marina.

    The associate verifies her passport and Emirates ID, then records a C-216C at her dining table.

  2. Week 1
    Filed on the accredited route.

    No uncertainty about forms: Globeia Incorporated submits it through the RCMP-accredited route.

  3. Week 4
    Authenticated in Ottawa.

    Once our team has reviewed the result, Global Affairs Canada authenticates it.

  4. Week 5
    Legalized by the UAE Embassy.

    The UAE Embassy in Ottawa legalizes it, and the legal Arabic translation is arranged next.

  5. Week 7
    Licence file complete.

    A single invoice. A legalized and translated RCMP Criminal Record Check, ready for MOFA attestation and her DHA file.
