YOUR FINGERPRINTING PARTNER

Globeia Malaysia: Digital Background Checks & Mobile Fingerprinting
for FBI, RCMP & More

One provider for doorstep fingerprinting, document authentication, and international submissions.

You don’t need more vendors. You need a predictable route from fingerprint capture to the completed document in your hand. Globeia Malaysia provides that by combining mobile fingerprinting across the country with a suite of international documentation services. We support applicants requiring FBI Identity History Summaries, RCMP Criminal Record Checks, and fingerprinting for authorities in Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, New Zealand, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar, Bahrain, Japan, South Korea, and many other international destinations. Our services also include apostille, embassy legalisation, certified translations, and secure international courier delivery through a single point of contact.

The FBI and RCMP submissions go directly through Globeia Inc. in the USA and Globeia Incorporated in Canada, not through a subcontractor. That direct line shortens communication loops and strengthens tracking. Before an associate ever arrives, secure Face ID verification locks in your identity. The outcome is a tightly coordinated process that gives you confidence to move forward, without the friction of managing multiple touchpoints yourself.

Globeia’s Professional Services in Malaysia

Fingerprinting Services in Malaysia

Mobile collection at your home, office, or hotel in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor, Penang, Johor Bahru, and other major Malaysian cities.

Trained associates arrive with official fingerprint cards (FD-258 or FD-1164 for the FBI, C-216C or equivalent for the RCMP, and other country-specific cards), high-contrast black ink, and all necessary materials.

Prints are taken using standard roll-and-ink techniques that satisfy the strict quality requirements of the FBI, RCMP, and other federal authorities.

Multiple card copies can be produced during the same session upon request.

Identity is verified against two forms of government-issued photo identification, ensuring full legal compliance from the outset.

RCMP Criminal Record Check (Canada)

Fingerprints are captured locally on official C-216C cards or equivalent RCMP-accepted forms.

Completed cards are securely couriered to our Globeia Incorporated office in Toronto, Canada.

Cards are digitized and submitted to the RCMP’s CCRTIS system.

RCMP processing time is determined solely by the RCMP, typically within 3 to 120 days of digital submission, plus any international courier transit time.

The RCMP independently reviews the submission and issues the official Criminal Record Check result.

Track your application through SmartPortal and receive the final result in Malaysia by secure PDF or international courier.

FBI Identity History Summary (USA)

Fingerprints are taken on FD-258 (or FD-1164) cards in a format accepted by the FBI’s CJIS Division.

Cards are couriered to Globeia Inc. in the USA for direct submission to the FBI.

For U.S. citizens, the FBI typically issues results within 1 to 3 business days of receiving the prints; for non-U.S. citizens, processing usually takes 2 to 3 weeks, excluding international courier transit times between Malaysia and the USA.

Official results are delivered as a secure PDF or through international courier to your registered address in Malaysia.

Apostille, Legalization, and Translation

Globeia coordinates apostille processing through the designated competent authority, such as Global Affairs Canada or the U.S. Department of State Office of Authentications, depending on where the document was issued.

Consular legalization is processed through the relevant embassy for non-Hague Convention countries.

Certified translations are available in Malay, English, Mandarin, Arabic, French, Spanish, and 50+ other languages, meeting the legal standards of Malaysian and international authorities.

Covers criminal record certificates, birth and marriage certificates, academic transcripts, and other personal and official documents.

All services can be ordered individually or bundled together in a single coordinated package.

Letter Of Authentication

Globeia is the only fingerprinting service globally that issues an official Letter of Identity Verification for every fingerprinting appointment - a revolutionary standard in secure and verifiable fingerprinting.

This document confirms that your fingerprints were collected by a trained Globeia Fingerprinting Officer, following strict identity verification and international fingerprinting protocols.

Each letter is equipped with a unique, encrypted QR code, enabling instant, tamper-proof verification by government agencies, licensing authorities, employers, and law enforcement.

This advanced verification system helps reduce the risk of rejection, confirms that fingerprints were properly and professionally captured, and represents a level of transparency and assurance that no other company in the industry offers.

• The Process •

How Fingerprinting in Malaysia Works with Globeia

The Process

Step 1

Step 1: Schedule Through SmartForm

Select your preferred time slot and fill in the required details. Whether you’re in central Kuala Lumpur, a gated community in Petaling Jaya, or a hotel in George Town, you set the location and we’ll reach you.

Step 2

Step 2: Verification Using Face ID

Before an associate is assigned, you complete a quick digital Face ID check. This links your biometric identity to the application upfront, so there’s no confusion about who provided the prints later.

Step 3

Step 3: Professional Doorstep Collection

A Globeia associate arrives carrying the card stock your application requires. You present two valid government photo IDs. The associate then takes your prints using roll-and-ink technique that meets international quality standards.

Step 4

Step 4: On-the-Spot Quality Review

Before the appointment ends, every print goes through a thorough inspection. Smudged lines, incomplete prints, or faint impressions are spotted immediately and the print is retaken.

If you just need the fingerprints, you also receive a Globeia Letter of Identity Verification as a tamper-proof evidence that your prints were collected under professional protocol

Step 5

Step 5: International Submission Coordination

If you have also opted for submission coordination for FBI and RCMP applications, we securely courier the completed fingerprint cards to our respective office:

RCMP criminal record checks - couriered to Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, digitised, and submitted electronically into the RCMP’s CCRTIS system.

FBI background checks - couriered directly to Globeia Inc. in the USA for prompt filing with the FBI’s CJIS Division.

Step 6

Step 6: Application Tracking and Delivery of Results

SmartPortal gives you live status updates and an estimated delivery window. When the official result is issued, we coordinate either a secure PDF delivery or international courier straight to your address in Malaysia. An automated notification confirms the moment it’s in your hands.

If you need more services like apostille, authentication, or translation, we coordinate the next steps and hand you the completed document.

Disclaimer: Processing timelines are determined solely by the issuing federal body (e.g., RCMP, FBI) and cannot be accelerated or influenced by Globeia after submission.

10 Common Mistakes Americans Make When Moving to Spain (and How to Avoid Them)

Read This Blog

Americans moving to Spain need to plan for more than a visa: the process can involve choosing the correct residence category, preparing criminal-record and other supporting documents, obtaining required apostilles and Spanish translations, arranging qualifying health coverage, and adapting to Spain's administrative systems. The exact requirements depend on the visa or residence route, so applicants should confirm current requirements with the Spanish consulate or immigration authority handling their case.

Frequently Asked Questions About Malaysia

Please feel free to contact us for anything if you don't find answers to your questions.

Not always. While some authorities may accept fingerprints taken elsewhere, they must meet the technical standards required by the FBI, RCMP, or receiving authority. Professionally captured fingerprints reduce the risk of rejection and ensure they are taken on the correct fingerprint cards using internationally accepted procedures.

The fingerprinting appointment usually takes 15–20 minutes, while the overall visit may take around 30 minutes, including identity verification, document review, fingerprint collection, and a quality check to ensure your prints meet the required standards before the appointment is completed.
