Fingerprinting Services in Paris for RCMP, FBI and More with Globeia

Anywhere you choose in Paris, because a trained associate comes to you. Globeia does not have an office in the city. Our associates meet clients in their flats, offices and hotel lobbies, from Montmartre and the Marais to Passy and Bercy, and in inner suburbs such as Neuilly-sur-Seine and Boulogne-Billancourt. Versailles and Saint-Germain-en-Laye are possible by arrangement.

Plan for 15 to 30 minutes, whether we meet you in the 16th or at La Défense. Our associate checks your passport against your face, rolls each finger onto the card your authority requires and looks at every impression before packing it, so a smudged print never reaches Washington or Ottawa. Your Letter of Identity Verification is handed over before the associate leaves. A clear table near a window is all we need.

We start by taking your fingerprints in Paris on standard U.S. FD-258 or FD-1164 cards. If you choose our full-service package, we securely ship your cards to our Washington, DC office. Globeia staff there submit it to the FBI, check the result and arrange the U.S. apostille, and a sworn French translation follows for the préfecture. You can see where your file is at every stage in Globeia SmartPortal.

Other police clearances or Fingerprinting only starting from €125, FBI starting from €283 and RCMP starting from €299. You see the full price, including any mobile visit fee, before you pay.

Yes. The C-216C is completed at your flat or office in Paris and then sent to Toronto, where Globeia Incorporated holds the RCMP accreditation and submits it. When the result arrives, we send it to Global Affairs Canada for the Canadian apostille, then add a sworn French translation if the préfecture requires one. You can follow each step in Globeia SmartPortal.

Globeia provides official FD-258 and FD-1164 and Canadian cards C-216C. If you need fingerprints for another country, such as Australia, South Africa, or Singapore, you will need to print or bring the official form required by that country's police authority.

Usually, yes. When a naturalisation or residence application requires a foreign police clearance, the préfecture generally expects it to be apostilled by the issuing country and translated by a traducteur assermenté, a sworn translator listed at a French court of appeal such as the one in Paris. Please check the document list for your procedure. With the full service, we order both, starting with the apostille.

Yes. Every appointment in Paris is a mobile visit. We can come to your home, office or hotel in any arrondissement, and to inner suburbs such as Issy-les-Moulineaux, Levallois-Perret and Vincennes, with Marne-la-Vallée by arrangement. You still receive a full identity check and a Letter of Identity Verification, and your total shows any visit fee before you pay.

Your passport and one more ID; at least one of them must be government-issued with your photo and signature. A French titre de séjour or permis de conduire works well as the second document. We bring the FD-258, FD-1164 and C-216C cards, so you do not need to find them. For another country's police clearance, please have that authority's own form ready.

Yes. We regularly take fingerprints for individuals applying for clearances or professional licenses in countries like South Africa, Singapore, Hong Kong, Australia, and India, as well as regulatory registrations like FINRA.

Yes. Globeia can arrange appointments for couples, families, employees, and groups. Corporate and bulk fingerprinting can also be coordinated for eligible requirements.

No. The French record for your time in France is the extrait de casier judiciaire, issued by the Casier judiciaire national in Nantes, and it is a separate document. Our associate takes the prints needed for the FBI Background Check and the RCMP Criminal Record Check, on FD-258, FD-1164 or C-216C cards, at your address anywhere from Belleville to Passy.
