Obtaining an FBI background check for use abroad should be straightforward.
In reality, it is one of the most confusing and error-prone document processes people face.
Every year, thousands of applicants experience delays, rejections, and unnecessary costs because their FBI background checks were: – Apostilled at the wrong level – Submitted to the wrong authority – Translated incorrectly – Or processed by providers unfamiliar with federal requirements
We exist to fix that problem.
A Process That’s Often Done Wrong
An FBI background check is a federal document, yet many people are incorrectly advised to pursue state-level apostilles, notarizations, or embassy steps that are not valid.
Because the FBI is a federal agency, its documents must be authenticated through the U.S. Department of State—and nowhere else. This distinction is critical, but it is often misunderstood or overlooked by general apostille companies.
Our team saw firsthand how often applicants were misled, delayed, or forced to start over.
That’s why we created FBI Background Check Apostille as a specialized platform focused on doing one thing correctly.
Built for Accuracy, Not Volume
We did not build this service to handle “every document under the sun.” We built it to handle FBI background checks the right way.
By narrowing our focus, we are able to:
– Understand federal requirements in depth – Avoid common processing mistakes – Provide clear, honest guidance – Deliver documents that are accepted the first time
Our goal is not to overwhelm clients with options—it’s to remove uncertainty from the process entirely.
Transparency Matters
We believe trust starts with clarity.
That’s why we:
Clearly explain our role as a private document processing company
Disclose pricing upfront
Explain government timelines honestly
Encourage clients to apply directly through government agencies if they prefer
All FBI background checks are issued by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and all federal apostilles are issued by the U.S. Department of State. We do not issue government documents—we guide, coordinate, and manage the process correctly.
Designed for Real International Use
Our clients don’t obtain FBI background checks “just in case.” They need them for real, time-sensitive reasons, including:
Residency and visa applications
Employment or teaching abroad
Citizenship and naturalization
Marriage, adoption, or legal filings overseas
Because international authorities are strict, accuracy is not optional. We exist to ensure your documents meet real-world acceptance standards, not just theoretical requirements.
Our Mission
Our mission is simple:
To make FBI background check apostilles accurate, transparent, and stress-free—no matter where in the world you are.
If we do our job well, you won’t have to think about apostilles, federal agencies, or document rules at all. You’ll simply receive documents that are correct, complete, and accepted.
Common Queries
Questions About Our Services
What is an FBI background check?
An FBI background check is an official document issued by the FBI that details an individual’s criminal record, if any. This document is often required for immigration, employment, or other legal purposes, especially when submitting documents internationally.
How long does the apostille process take?
Our apostille process typically takes 10 to 12 days from start to finish. We pride ourselves on our fast turnaround times while ensuring that each document receives the thorough attention it deserves.
Do you provide translation services?
Yes, we offer translation services in over 150 languages. If your apostilled FBI background check needs translation, we can efficiently handle that to ensure it meets the requirements for international use.
Are you affiliated with the FBI or any government agency?
No. We are a private document processing company and are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or part of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the U.S. Department of State, or any other government agency.

We assist with fingerprint submission, coordinate FBI background check processing, submit documents for federal apostille, and provide certified or sworn translations when required. We do not issue government documents ourselves.
