The FBI background check —officially, the FBI Identity History Summary— is the federal criminal history record of the United States. It is issued by the FBI’s CJIS Division (Criminal Justice Information Services, in Clarksburg, West Virginia) from your fingerprints: the FBI does not search by name.
For a foreign authority to accept it, it must carry the Hague Convention apostille, which for federal documents is issued only by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. If the destination country is not a party to the Convention, consular legalization applies.
Rule · 28 CFR §§ 16.30–16.34: anyone may request their own Identity History Summary from the FBI, identified by fingerprints.
Work, study or residence in countries that ask for a U.S. criminal record: Spain, Italy, Mexico, Colombia and Argentina, among others.
Nationality processes that ask for the record of the years lived in the United States.
Adoption files that require the apostilled federal report of each adopter.
Recognition of studies and professional licenses that ask for a record from the country where you practiced.
Employers and regulated sectors that ask for the federal report, not a state one.
Colombia’s Resolución 5477 asks applicants who lived in the United States for a recent criminal record certificate.

It is the FBI Identity History Summary: the federal criminal history record of the United States, issued by the FBI’s CJIS Division from your fingerprints. It is requested for visas and residence permits, naturalization, international adoptions and jobs in regulated sectors. To use it outside the United States, it is almost always required with the U.S. Department of State apostille.
