Description
An FBI background check apostille Colombia is the official U.S. criminal history report with international certification required by Colombian institutions. Our service handles LiveScan fingerprinting in Bogotá, FBI processing, and State Department Apostille in a single, streamlined process. For details on the full procedure, visit our Colombia service guide.
Who needs an FBI background check apostille for Colombia?
Colombian institutions that commonly require this document include: notaries for international adoption proceedings, companies hiring personnel with a U.S. work history, universities for academic credential validation, and immigration authorities for visa or residency applications. Furthermore, the apostilled certificate is legally valid in all countries that signed the Hague Convention.
How the service works
- Fingerprinting: Visit our Bogotá office for LiveScan digital fingerprinting. No travel to the U.S. required.
- FBI processing: We transmit your fingerprints electronically to the FBI to generate your official Identity History Summary.
- Apostille: We obtain the U.S. State Department Apostille on your FBI certificate.
- Delivery: You receive the apostilled document in physical or digital format based on your chosen option.
Processing times
The total processing time depends on your selected service level. First, an FBI Report without apostille takes 5 to 10 business days. Then, with a regular apostille, the full process takes 15 to 20 business days. Finally, the express apostille option reduces the timeline to 8 to 12 business days. Non-citizens who only need the FD-258 card can complete their visit in a single session.
Service options available in Colombia
We offer service levels for U.S. citizens, permanent residents, and non-citizens who require the FD-258 card. Additionally, the FD-258 Card Only option is available for those who have arranged FBI submission separately but need official paper fingerprinting.
