Our 5 Step Process

How Globeia Fingerprinting Works in London

The Process

Step 1

Step 1: Choose Your Service

Select the type of fingerprinting you need - FBI (FD-258/FD-1164), RCMP (C-216C), or another international form and request your fingerprints using our SmartForm. Every booking includes digital Face ID verification before confirmation to help maintain secure identity validation standards for international applications.

Step 2

Step 2: Schedule Your Appointment - In-Office or Mobile

Choose a convenient date and time through our SmartForm. You can either visit our London office at 2 Eastbourne Terrace, Paddington Station, or have a trained Globeia associate come to your home or office for a mobile appointment.

Step 3

Step 3: Get Your Fingerprints Taken

Our trained associates use globally accepted standards to capture your prints, whether ink-based or digital Livescan (selected by you) - all done professionally, quickly, and compliantly.

Step 4

Step 4: We Prepare Your Package

Once your fingerprints are captured and quality-checked, the completed card is couriered to the appropriate Globeia office- Globeia Incorporated in Canada for RCMP Criminal Record Check submissions, or Globeia Inc. in the USA for FBI Identity History Summary Check submission coordination.

If you have chosen a collection-only service, the sealed card is returned to you with a Globeia Letter of Identity Verification confirming the appointment and identity check. This is an internal Globeia document and is not a government-issued certification.

Step 5

Step 5: Delivery and Optional Add-ons

Once the authority processes your fingerprints, Globeia ensures your results are delivered safely to you - digitally via email or via courier if you prefer. Optional services like Apostille, Embassy Attestation, or certified translation can also be handled.
