The process

A clearer path from FBI report to international use.

We organize the federal apostille or authentication process into clear next steps, so you can begin with confidence.

Before an order

Tell us where your document will be used

Upload your FBI Identity History Summary PDF and tell us the country where the document will be used. We will determine whether the document requires a federal apostille or federal authentication and handle the appropriate process for you.

Three straightforward stages

1

Upload your FBI report

Submit your FBI Identity History Summary electronically along with your destination country and order information.

We handle the federal process

We prepare and submit your document through the appropriate U.S. Department of State apostille or authentication process.

3

Receive your completed document

Once processing is complete, we email a scan of the completed Federal Apostille and then FedEx the completed hard-copy document to you.

A note about notarization

An FBI Identity History Summary should not be notarized before federal apostille or authentication processing.
