Where do I go for fingerprinting in Ho Chi Minh City?

You do not need to go anywhere. A certified Globeia associate comes to you: your apartment in Thao Dien or An Phu, your office near Ben Thanh, a hotel in Da Kao or a café anywhere in the city. Di An, Thu Dau Mot, Bien Hoa and Vung Tau are covered by arrangement. Please enter your address in Globeia SmartPortal when you book, and we will confirm the rest.

How long does a fingerprinting appointment take?

Most visits last 15 to 30 minutes. In that time the associate confirms who you are from your passport, rolls each finger on the card required and inspects every print, repeating any that are unclear. The visit ends with your Letter of Identity Verification, which records who took your prints, where and when.

I need an FBI Background Check in Ho Chi Minh City. How does it work?

Book in Globeia SmartPortal, enter your address and choose a time. Our associate comes to you with the FD-258 or FD-1164 card, takes your prints and checks every impression before leaving. The card goes to Globeia in Washington, DC the same week. Our own team submits it to the FBI, reviews the result and orders the U.S. apostille the day it arrives. You can follow every step in SmartPortal.

How much does fingerprinting cost in Ho Chi Minh City?

Other police clearances or Fingerprinting only from ₫1,250,000, FBI from ₫3,586,000 and RCMP from ₫4,010,000. You see the full price, including any mobile visit fee, before you pay.

I need an RCMP Criminal Record Check from Ho Chi Minh City. Is that possible?

Yes. Our associate comes to your address with the C-216C form, takes your prints and checks every impression on the spot. The card goes directly to Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, which holds the RCMP accreditation and handles the submission. The Canadian apostille comes from Global Affairs Canada. The result is issued in English, and you can follow every stage in Globeia SmartPortal.

Will the Vietnamese authorities accept my police clearance without an apostille or a translation?

Usually not. For a work permit, the Vietnamese authorities expect a foreign police clearance to have an apostille from the issuing country and a certified Vietnamese translation. Vietnam joined the Hague Apostille Convention in September 2026, so embassy legalisation is no longer needed. With our full service, we order the apostille first and then the translation, so the papers are not returned to you.

I am staying in Vung Tau for a few months. Can Globeia come to me?

Yes. Every appointment in Ho Chi Minh City is a mobile visit: a certified associate visits your apartment, office or hotel from Tan Dinh to Phu My Hung, and in Di An, Thu Dau Mot, Bien Hoa or Vung Tau by arrangement. The identity checks and the Letter of Identity Verification follow the same standard as everywhere else. The price shown before payment includes any visit fee.

What countries can I get fingerprinting for in Ho Chi Minh City?

Globeia supports fingerprinting requirements for Canada, the United States, Australia, Singapore, Hong Kong, New Zealand, the UAE, South Africa, and other countries, depending on the authority and application requirements.

What should I have ready for my appointment in Ho Chi Minh City?

Your passport and one more ID with your photo and signature, such as your temporary residence card. At least one of the two must be issued by a government. Our associate brings FD-258, FD-1164 and C-216C cards. If another country has given you its own fingerprint form, please have it ready. Good daylight or a bright lamp helps the prints.

Can Globeia fingerprint multiple people at the same location?

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

Do I need to go to a local government office for this?

No, not for these clearances. The Vietnamese Judicial Record Certificate (Phiếu lý lịch tư pháp) is a separate document that covers your record in Vietnam, and some employers also ask for it. The FBI Background Check and the RCMP Criminal Record Check each require FD-258, FD-1164 or C-216C cards, which our associate completes at your apartment or workplace.

What happens after my fingerprints are collected?

Your fingerprints are checked for quality before the appointment is completed. You receive your completed fingerprint cards along with Globeia's Letter of Identity Verification, and where applicable, Globeia can coordinate the next submission steps for eligible FBI and RCMP applications.

Fingerprinting for every purpose

From Fingerprints to Final Clearance, One Team Handles the Journey

For many applicants, the difficult part is not the fingerprinting appointment but what comes after it. Sending cards internationally, following authority requirements and arranging apostilles can quickly become complicated. Globeia makes the process simpler by connecting your fingerprinting appointment with our own processing teams in Canada and the USA, and keeping your file organised from start to finish.

Option A · Fingerprints only

We do Step 1. Steps 2 to 6 are yours.

One visit, one card and one Letter of Identity Verification. We take your prints, check every impression and give the file to you. You then manage the next steps across two countries yourself.

✕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 certified translator the Vietnamese 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.

RecommendedOption B · Full Package with Globeia

We do all six steps. You attend one appointment.

We come to your address in Ho Chi Minh City for Step 1. Steps 2 to 5 go through our own office in the issuing country, and Step 6 is delivered back to you. The same team and the same file throughout, with no third parties.

RCMP electronic submission is handled through the appropriate Canadian processing route; claims of direct RCMP digital submission from Vietnam 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 Linh. She lives in Ho Chi Minh City and needs an RCMP Criminal Record Check for her Vietnamese work permit.

Linh is a composite of the clients we meet every week. Here is how her clearance goes when she arranges the fingerprints and manages the rest herself, and how it goes when Globeia handles the complete file.

Apostille from the U.S., Canada and beyond

Birth and marriage certificates, diplomas, police reports, powers of attorney and company documents: we have documents apostilled or legalised for use in any country, without you travelling. Vietnam joined the Hague Apostille Convention in September 2026, so Vietnamese documents can now be apostilled directly.

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.
