Lisbon has changed. The city that once exported explorers now imports global capital, talent, and ambition. From the glass towers of Parque das Nações to the investment firms lining Avenida da Liberdade, Lisbon's financial professionals are operating in two continents at once. If you are registering with a U.S. broker-dealer, joining a FINRA member firm, or transitioning into a dual-regulated role from Portugal, there is one compliance step you cannot skip, delay, or digitise your way around. FINRA requires rolled ink fingerprints on a FINRA-approved card. Digital fingerprints are not accepted from applicants outside the United States. No exceptions.
Globeia, backed by physical presence in Lisbon, brings certified FINRA fingerprinting directly to your office, home, or workspace across Lisbon. Our technicians are trained in U.S. regulatory standards, carry FINRA-approved cards, and deliver submission-ready fingerprint sets the same day. Whether you are an individual finance professional, part of a growing fintech team, or a compliance officer managing multiple registrations at once, Globeia makes sure the compliance side does not slow down the career side. With a physical base in Lisbon, Globeia operates from its local office at Amoreiras Square Building, Rua Carlos Alberto da Mota Pinto no 17, Amoreiras, Lisbon.

Lisbon's fintech sector is growing fast and onboarding timelines are not getting longer. When multiple professionals need FINRA registration at the same time, managing individual appointments across a distributed team is neither efficient nor reliable. Globeia's corporate fingerprinting model was designed for exactly this situation. One coordinated session at your office. Every participant fingerprinted to the same standard. Every card is reviewed before it leaves the room. No follow-up appointments, no rework, no last-minute rejections holding up your compliance calendar.










We also cover surrounding municipalities and the wider Lisbon metropolitan area, making Globeia accessible for professionals based across the full geography of Greater Lisbon. Our physical office at Amoreiras Square Building, Rua Carlos Alberto da Mota Pinto no 17, Amoreiras, Lisbon coordinates directly with FINRA member firms and U.S. broker-dealers, providing on-the-ground support for international clients throughout the submission process.
