Fingerprinting for every purpose

Need More Than Fingerprinting? From Fingerprints to Final Documents, One Coordinated Process

A fingerprint card is only the first step in many international clearance applications. After collection, Globeia helps coordinate the rest of the process through our own offices in Canada and the USA, including submission support, document processing, apostille and translation assistance where required. Your application stays with one team, in one file, with one tracking process, so you do not have to manage several providers in different countries.

Option A · Fingerprints only

You Need the Prints. You Manage the Application.

We complete your fingerprinting appointment in Jeddah, including identity verification and a Letter of Identity Verification. You then handle the remaining steps, such as the courier, submission, apostille, translation and communication with the relevant authority.

  • ✕You find a courier and ship the original card abroad
  • ✕You submit to the authority, on its form, in its sequence
  • ✕You arrange the apostille in the issuing country and ship again
  • ✕You find a legal translator the Saudi authorities will accept
  • ✕One miss at any authority sends the file back to Step 1

Fine if your employer or lawyer is handling the rest. Most people are not in that position.

RCMP Accreditation & Processing Disclaimer

RCMP accreditation is held by Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, Canada. Globeia in Jeddah is not RCMP-accredited, and Globeia is not endorsed by the RCMP, FBI or FINRA. RCMP electronic submission is handled through the appropriate Canadian processing route; claims of direct RCMP digital submission from Saudi Arabia should be treated with caution. All Criminal Record Checks, FBI Identity History Summaries and regulatory results are issued by the respective authority, not Globeia.

One clearance, two ways to get it

Meet Yusuf and Nadia. They live in Jeddah and need an FBI Background Check each, plus a South African police clearance, for their Canadian permanent residence application.

Yusuf and Nadia are a composite of the clients we meet every week. Here is how their clearance proceeds when they arrange the fingerprints and manage the rest themselves, and how it proceeds when Globeia handles the complete file.

On their own

Separate appointments in Jeddah, two envelopes to Pretoria

  1. Week 1
    Printed a week apart.

    Yusuf visits a provider in Al Rawdah after work. Nadia books later, around their daughter's school day.

  2. Week 3
    South African form missing.

    Only FD-258 cards were taken, but South Africa requires prints on its own SAPS form.

  3. Week 9
    U.S. results arrive first.

    Both FBI Background Checks have arrived, but the South African clearances are still in Pretoria.

  4. Week 20
    IRCC deadline missed.

    Canada requires every police certificate by a set date, and Nadia's is still in the post.

  5. Week 26
    Family file reopened.

    Six courier envelopes, two extension requests, and a landing date pushed beyond the school year.

With Globeia

Their Jeddah villa, one visit, one team

  1. Day 1
    One visit in Al Shati.

    FD-258 cards and SAPS forms for both of them, checked before the associate leaves the villa.

  2. Week 1
    Cards split by route.

    The two FD-258 cards are couriered to Globeia in Washington, DC, and the SAPS forms are sent to Pretoria with their applications.

  3. Week 3
    Every submission in one view.

    Four applications under two names, all visible to both of them in Globeia SmartPortal.

  4. Week 6
    Results land together.

    Each certificate is in English, which IRCC accepts as issued.

  5. Week 7
    Uploaded to IRCC on time.

    A single invoice. All four certificates are valid on the day they are submitted.

Apostille and legalisation: Prepare Documents for international use

Do you need documents from the U.S., Canada, the UK, Saudi Arabia or another country to be accepted abroad? Globeia helps coordinate apostille, authentication, legalisation and translation for documents such as police certificates, birth records, diplomas, powers of attorney and business documents.

  • U.S. documents

    Our office is in Washington, DC, the capital, so federal apostilles and embassy legalisations are handled in person. State-issued documents are routed to the right Secretary of State.

  • Canadian documents

    Globeia Incorporated obtains apostilles from Global Affairs Canada or the competent provincial authority, and authentication and legalisation where an apostille does not apply.

  • Documents from other countries

    We also arrange apostilles from other countries through our partner network. Tell us the country and the document, and we will confirm the route, timing and price.
