Secure Your Employment and Travel Abroad
If you plan to work, study, relocate, or obtain residency abroad, you may be required to submit an FBI background check. However, presenting the background check alone is not enough—many foreign authorities require it to be apostilled before they will accept it. We handle the entire process for you, quickly and correctly.
What Is an FBI Background Check Apostille?
An apostille is a certification that verifies the authenticity of an official U.S. document so it can be legally recognized in countries that are members of the Hague Apostille Convention.
If the country you are traveling to is not part of the Hague Convention, the document must go through embassy legalization instead—and Travel Visa Pro can assist with that too.
Why You May Need an Apostilled FBI Background Check
You may need an FBI background check apostilled to:
- Secure international employment
- Apply for a foreign work visa or residency permit
- Obtain professional licensing abroad
- Relocate or work with NGOs or multinational corporations
- Rent housing in certain countries
- Complete international adoption or marriage documentation
If your destination country requires proof of personal history, this document will likely be mandatory.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I need an apostille if I already have the background check?
Yes. Without an apostille (or embassy legalization for non-Hague countries), foreign authorities will not recognize the document.
Can I email you the FBI background check?
Yes. If your background check was issued as a PDF, email submission is acceptable.
How long does the apostille take?
Standard processing is typically 6 business days or less.
Rush processing may return results in as few as 3–4 business days.
What if I need the document for a non-Hague country?
We will assist with embassy legalization instead of apostille.
