How it works while we launch

Request now, and be among the first visits when we go live.

We are opening Zimbabwe in order of request. Your request costs nothing and commits you to nothing; it tells us where the first visits are needed and secures your place in the first schedule.

  1. 1Step 1
    Send your request.

    Your address, the clearances you need and when you would like the visit. Nothing to pay.

  2. 2Step 2
    We reply within 24 hours.

    As soon as we can serve your area, we send a confirmed date and a written estimate listing the plan, government fees at cost and any travel fee.

  3. 3Step 3
    Confirm, and we come to you.

    Pay only once you are happy with the estimate. Your prints then go to our own offices in the U.S. and Canada, and you follow every step in Globeia SmartPortal.

A real company, with real offices

Established Teams for International Submissions

Your application is supported by Globeia’s teams in Washington, DC and Toronto. These offices coordinate the relevant U.S. or Canadian submission process and help manage the additional document steps required by your receiving authority.

Glass-fronted office with people working at desks inside
Our own offices, Globeia Inc. in Washington, DC and Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, submit every FBI and RCMP file.
Three questions to ask any fingerprinting provider

The answers tell you whether your file will be done to the authority's rules, or to nobody's.

  1. Where is my FBI application sent from, and who checks the card before it leaves Zimbabwe?

    Globeia Inc. in Washington, DC submits it to the FBI CJIS Division from inside the United States, after a trained associate in Zimbabwe has reviewed every impression on your FD-258 or FD-1164 card.

  2. Zimbabwe does not accept apostilles. Who arranges the authentication and the embassy legalisation?

    Our own offices, in order For an FBI result: U.S. Department of State authentication, then legalisation at the Embassy of Zimbabwe in Washington, DC. For an RCMP result: Global Affairs Canada authentication, then legalisation at the Embassy of Zimbabwe in Ottawa. Where the Department of Immigration also expects a stamp from Zimbabwe's foreign ministry, we tell you before you pay.

  3. Who will actually take my fingerprints in Zimbabwe?

    A trained Globeia associate visits your home, office or hotel, first in Harare, Borrowdale, Chitungwiza and Bulawayo, checks your face against your government ID and reviews every impression before the card leaves. While we launch, each visit is confirmed in writing, with its date and estimate, before you pay.

A fingerprint card taken without reference to the authority's standards is just ink on paper: the wrong card stock, a missing rolled impression or an empty "taken by" box, and the application comes back weeks later. Our associates are trained on exactly those criteria.

One step, or all six

How to tell a one-step fingerprint shop, or an online "all-in-one" website, from a provider that can actually run the whole process

Local shops do one thing well: they take prints, in one city. Online services promise everything and own nothing. Globeia is the only provider with its own offices at both ends of your file.

The authorities set the clock. You control only when Step 1 happens.

RCMP Accreditation & Processing Disclaimer

RCMP accreditation is held exclusively by Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, Canada. Globeia in Zimbabwe is not RCMP-accredited, and Globeia is not endorsed by the RCMP, the FBI, FINRA, or any government authority. Fingerprints for the RCMP Criminal Record Check are collected in ink on the official C-216C form and mailed to Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, which submits them to the RCMP. All Criminal Record Checks, FBI Identity History Summaries and regulatory results are issued directly by the respective authority, not Globeia.

One clearance, two ways to get it

Meet Tariro. She lives in Zimbabwe and needs an FBI Background Check for a nursing post abroad.

Tariro is a composite of the clients Globeia serves in its live markets: a Zimbabwean nurse who worked in Dallas. Here is how the clearance goes when she does the fingerprints and manages the rest alone, and how it goes when Globeia runs the whole file.

On her own

Fingerprints in Zimbabwe, everything else by post and email

  1. Week 1
    Gets fingerprinted locally.

    A local police station or shop rolls the FD-258 card, and Tariro posts it to a U.S. vendor she has never spoken to.

  2. Week 4
    Card rejected.

    Two impressions are unreadable. Nobody checked before it shipped. Back to step one.

  3. Week 7
    Result arrives, not yet legalised.

    Tariro now needs U.S. Department of State authentication, then legalisation at the Embassy of Zimbabwe in Washington, DC: two more offices, two more couriers, and the original posted again.

  4. Week 11
    Legalisation back, weeks later.

    The certificate is in English, which the Department of Immigration usually accepts, but the clock has kept running.

  5. Week 15
    Finally files.

    Four providers, four invoices, and months gone.

With Globeia

One visit in Harare, one file, one team

  1. Day 1
    Requests a visit, pays once.

    Identity checked at her door in Harare, prints reviewed on the spot, Letter of Identity Verification issued.

  2. Week 1
    Card lands at Globeia Washington, DC.

    Submitted to the FBI by our own team. Tariro follows it in Globeia SmartPortal.

  3. Week 3
    Result received and checked.

    Authentication requested the same day, then legalisation at the Embassy of Zimbabwe in Washington, DC, by the same team.

  4. Week 9
    Ready-to-file clearance in hand.

    One invoice, one reference, and the file ready for a nursing post abroad.

    “I had a great experience with Globeia! I’m currently living in Australia and needed help obtaining my Canadian police check. Even from overseas, their team made the process smooth and stress-free. They were responsive, professional, and kept me updated every step of the way. I received my document quickly and without any issues. I highly recommend Globeia to anyone who needs assistance with background checks, especially if you’re applying from abroad.
