Start with Mobile Fingerprinting in France

Arranging high-quality fingerprints is the first and most important step of an FBI background check application. The quality of your fingerprints can have a significant impact on the overall process. Clear, properly captured fingerprints help minimize the risk of delays or rejected submissions. This makes professional fingerprinting an important part of a successful application.

At Globeia, we provide professional fingerprint collection services across France using ink-roll techniques on the official FD-258 or FD-1164 forms. Whether you choose mobile fingerprinting at your home or office, our trained team ensures your fingerprints are captured clearly and accurately.

After collecting our fingerprints, we can also assist with submission coordination through Globeia Inc. in the USA. This means when you choose us, you’ll have one point of contact for the overall process.

If you need an FBI Background Check while living in France, contact Globeia today to schedule your fingerprint collection.

FBI Background Checks for VLS-TS and Other French Visa Applications

If you're applying for a VLS-TS or another French visa, you may be asked to provide an FBI Background Check. But it also depends on the requirements of the French authority or the purpose of your application. If you've previously lived in the United States, an FBI Identity History Summary may form part of the supporting documentation required for your visa or residency process.

Applying for an FBI Background Check from France can be challenging if you’re trying to handle the process on your own. Globeia’s doorstep fingerprinting, application guidance, and submission coordination, helps you complete your request without travelling back to the United States.

To help minimise delays caused by fingerprint quality, we may recommend collecting more than one set of fingerprints, giving you greater peace of mind throughout the application process.

Why Choose Globeia for Your FBI Background Check in France?

With over 10 years of experience in international fingerprinting, Globeia has helped more than 30,000 individuals across 100+ countries. Every fingerprint card undergoes an on-the-spot quality check before your appointment concludes, helping reduce the risk of delays caused by poor-quality fingerprints. Whether you're in Paris, Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Nice, or elsewhere in France, Globeia makes obtaining an FBI Background Check more convenient.

FBI Apostille Check for France

Sometimes the French authority asking for your FBI background check will also want the document legalized. Because France is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, that means getting an apostille from the U.S. Department of State. This is the standard way to authenticate American public documents for use in France. Where needed, we handle the apostille coordination as well, so the whole journey from fingerprinting to background check and authentication feels manageable.
