Globeia Manchester | Mobile Ink Fingerprinting
and International Document Services

Globeia Manchester coordinates mobile ink fingerprinting, RCMP Criminal Record Check and FBI background check submissions, apostille support, and international document services - all through one connected process, managed from your door in Manchester through to our offices in Toronto and San Francisco.

For Manchester residents, getting international fingerprints or criminal record checks can be frustrating. Long waits at police stations, complicated submission processes for RCMP and FBI background checks, and the challenge of legalizing documents for global use often mean multiple trips, wasted time, and uncertainty about whether your documents will be accepted abroad. Many companies offer partial solutions - some handle fingerprints, others only apostille or criminal record checks, but rarely is there one provider that can manage everything seamlessly.

Globeia Manchester connects local mobile ink fingerprint collection and apostille coordination with Globeia’s international office network in Scarborough, Ontario, and San Francisco, USA. Canadian Criminal Record Check applications are coordinated through Globeia Incorporated, the RCMP-accredited office responsible for electronic submission to the RCMP from within Canada, while FBI fingerprint card processing is coordinated through Globeia Inc..

• The Process •

How Globeia Manchester Process Works

Here is exactly how the process works from booking in Manchester to submission abroad.

The Process

Step 1

Step 1: Book Through the SmartPortal

Choose your service - mobile ink fingerprinting, Canadian Criminal Record Check coordination, FBI Identity History Summary support, apostille coordination, or related document services, and select a date and location that fits your schedule.

Whether you're based in the Northern Quarter, Didsbury, Salford, or Chorlton, booking takes only a few minutes with instant confirmation.

Step 2

Step 2: A Trained Associate Comes to You

A Globeia-trained associate visits your home, office, coworking space, or hotel with all required materials, including official fingerprint cards, ink equipment, and identity verification forms.

Two valid forms of identification are required. At least one must be a government-issued photo ID showing your full name, date of birth, photograph, and signature. Photocopies of both IDs are required for submission.

Step 3

Step 3: Ink Fingerprints Captured on the Official Card

Fingerprints are taken using the ink-and-roll method on official paper cards - C-216C for Canadian applications, FD-258 or FD-1164 for U.S. applications, or other country-specific formats where required. Each impression is reviewed on-site for clarity and completeness. If any section does not meet requirements, it is retaken during the same appointment.

Step 4

Step 4: Cards Sealed and Dispatched

Once the fingerprints pass quality review, the card is securely sealed and prepared for international courier. A Letter of Identity Verification is issued at this stage - a Globeia document confirming identity verification by a trained associate, featuring a unique encrypted QR code.

The Letter of Identity Verification is a Globeia-issued document only and is not linked to the RCMP, the FBI, or any government authority.

Step 5

Step 5: Submission Handled by Offices Abroad

Cards are couriered to the appropriate international office for submission:

RCMP applications are handled through Globeia Incorporated, which submits fingerprints to the RCMP from within Canada

FBI applications are handled through Globeia Inc. for submission to the FBI

From this stage onward, processing is fully controlled by the relevant authority (RCMP or FBI). SmartPortal tracking covers only Globeia-managed stages such as courier dispatch, office receipt, and submission confirmation.

Step 6

Step 6: Result Delivered to You

Once the RCMP or FBI completes processing, the Criminal Record Check or Identity History Summary is delivered directly to you via your selected method - email, Manchester address, or tracked international courier.

If certified translations or apostille coordination is required, these can be arranged in parallel so your documents are ready for use without delay.
