Do you need to apostille an FBI Rap Sheet (Identity History Summary Check – IHSC)?
This document is commonly referred to as an FBI Background Check.
Individuals can obtain an Identity History Summary, commonly known as a criminal history or “rap sheet,” from the FBI by paying a fee. This document contains specific information derived from fingerprint submissions stored by the FBI, including details related to arrests, and in some cases, federal employment, naturalization, or military service.
If the fingerprint submissions are linked to an arrest, the Identity History Summary provides details such as the agency that submitted the fingerprints to the FBI, the date of the arrest, the charge for the arrest, and the disposition of the arrest if available. The FBI gathers all arrest information included in an Identity History Summary from fingerprint submissions, disposition reports, and other relevant data provided by authorized criminal justice agencies.
To streamline the process of obtaining an Identity History Summary, individuals have the option to engage with an FBI-Approved Channeler. These are private businesses that have entered into contracts with the FBI to submit requests on behalf of individuals, thereby expediting the delivery of Identity History Summary Checks (rap sheets) authorized by the FBI.
Cost: As low as $75 for each apostille.
