More Than Fingerprinting? Get Your Complete Clearance Support

Your fingerprint appointment is only the beginning. Globeia helps coordinate the next steps for FBI Background Checks, RCMP Criminal Record Checks, apostilles, and translations through our international teams in the U.S. and Canada. Instead of managing separate providers in different countries, you have one organised process from fingerprint collection to document delivery.

  1. Step 1Identity check and fingerprinting on FD-258/FD-1164 cardsYour address, Malaga
  2. Step 2Secure international transferMalaga → Washington, DC

Option A · Fingerprints only

We do Step 1. Steps 2 to 6 are yours.

Globeia completes the fingerprinting appointment, checks your identity, and provides the required verification letter. After that, you handle 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 in the issuing country and ship again
  • ✕You find a sworn translator Spanish immigration 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.

RecommendedOption B · Full Package with Globeia

We do all six steps. You attend one appointment.

We take your fingerprints on the correct card, verify your identity, and provide your Letter of Identity Verification. From there, you take responsibility for coordinating every remaining step.

  • ✓Card checked before it ships, so it is not rejected later
  • ✓Submitted by our own accredited office, from inside the country
  • ✓Apostille and sworn translation ordered by us, in the right order
  • ✓Every step visible in your portal, one reference, one invoice
  • ✓10 years of doing exactly this. You get it right the first time.

RCMP Accreditation & Processing Disclaimer

RCMP accreditation is held by Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, Canada. Globeia’s local team in Malaga provides fingerprint collection support but is not RCMP-accredited. Globeia is not endorsed by the RCMP, FBI, or FINRA. RCMP submissions are completed through the appropriate Canadian processing route, and all Criminal Record Checks, FBI Identity History Summaries, and regulatory results are issued by the relevant authority, not Globeia.

One clearance, two ways to get it

Meet Ben and Hannah. They live in Malaga and need an FBI Background Check and an RCMP Criminal Record Check for their Spanish digital nomad visas.

Ben and Hannah are a composite of the clients we meet every week. Here is how their clearance goes when they arrange the fingerprints and manage the rest themselves, and how it goes when Globeia handles the complete file.

On their own

Split appointments in Malaga, results months apart

  1. Week 1
    Separate days, separate shops.

    Ben has his prints taken in Teatinos. Their daughter is off school that week, so Hannah can only book in Huelin a month later.

  2. Week 6
    Hannah's Canadian card is missing.

    Her shop only had FD-258 cards. Without a C-216C there is no RCMP Criminal Record Check, so her prints must be taken again.

  3. Week 14
    Results arrive weeks apart.

    Ben's two results arrive and go off for apostilles. Hannah's are still somewhere between Ottawa and Washington.

  4. Week 23
    Ben's result ages out.

    Hannah's file is finally complete, but Ben's FBI Background Check is now too old for the UGE.

  5. Week 31
    Filed, months late.

    Four fingerprinting sessions, two sworn translators, and a visa application submitted after the school year started.

With Globeia

A single sitting at their Malaga kitchen table

  1. Day 1
    One morning in El Limonar.

    Our associate takes Ben's and Hannah's prints at home: two FD-258 and two C-216C cards, each checked on the spot.

  2. Week 1
    Two offices, four cards.

    The FD-258 cards go to our Washington, DC office, and the C-216C cards go to Globeia Incorporated in Toronto.

  3. Week 3
    Both files, one portal view.

    All their submissions appear together in Globeia SmartPortal, so neither file gets ahead of the other.

  4. Week 6
    Apostilles in step.

    All four results are checked, then apostilled in the U.S. and Canada in the same week.

  5. Week 8
    Translated and ready together.

    One invoice. Sworn Spanish translations for both, and two valid files ready for the UGE.

Apostille and Legalisation Services for International Documents

    Our office is in Washington, DC, the capital, so federal apostilles and embassy legalisations are handled in person. State-issued documents are routed to the right Secretary of State.

  • Canadian documents

    Globeia Incorporated obtains apostilles from Global Affairs Canada or the competent provincial authority, and authentication and legalisation where an apostille does not apply.
