Do you need to apostille your FBI background check in Washington, D.C.?
An FBI background check is a U.S. Federal Government document issued by the U.S. Department of Justice. This document can only be apostilled through the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. An FBI background check is not notarized. Please do not notarize your FBI background check because it will not be accepted at the U.S. Department of State.
Note: If you have not obtained your FBI background check, please contact our office so we can recommend an FBI Channeler. We recommend that you ask the FBI channeler to email you the results in .PDF format.
If you receive your FBI background check in a digital format (PDF copy), go ahead and e-mail it to us with the completed order form and payment (see below). If you receive your FBI background by regular mail (Hard copy), go ahead and mail it to our Washington DC apostille office with our order forms (see below). We can process a digital PDF copy or a hard copy. It’s your choice.
