We have helped thousands of local and inter­na­tional clients to get Canadian police clearance (also known as a Certified Criminal Record Check, Police Check, Criminal Background Check, Certificate of Good Conduct, Canadian PCC, etc.).

Get your fin­ger­prints taken by the local police and send us the orig­i­nal fin­ger­print form. We will dig­i­tize inked fin­ger­prints with card-scan tech­nol­ogy and electronically transmit to the RCMP

The fin­ger­prints are trans­mit­ted to the RCMP, the same day we receive them. The Cer­ti­fied Crim­i­nal Record Check (duly cer­ti­fied, embossed and signed by the RCMP on their letterhead, click here to see the sample) is directly sent by the RCMP to the applicant or a third-party, via Canada Post reg­u­lar mail. An electronic trans­mis­sion of fin­ger­prints to the RCMP reduces wait time to 3–5 business days plus the mailing time*. To further speed up the process, we can receive a cer­ti­fied crim­i­nal record check from the RCMP and send it to the applicant or a third-party (as per request) via courier, at an additional cost. This is the quickest way to get police clearance cer­tifi­cate from Canada.

Authen­ti­ca­tion and Legal­iza­tion of the RCMP’s Cer­ti­fied Crim­i­nal Record Check

Foreign Gov­ern­ments and Orga­ni­za­tions sometimes need the RCMP’s Cer­ti­fied Crim­i­nal Record Check authen­ti­cated by the Department of Foreign Affairs and Inter­na­tional Trade (DFAIT) and legalized by the respective embassy/consulate before they accept it.

Canada is not a sig­na­tory of Hague Con­ven­tion abol­ish­ing the need for legal­iza­tion for foreign public doc­u­ments, therefore the term “Apostille” is not used for cer­ti­fi­ca­tion of doc­u­ments in Canada. The doc­u­ments orig­i­nat­ing in Canada need authen­ti­cated and legalized for use in a foreign country.

In addition to our express fin­ger­print­ing services, we can get RCMP’s cer­ti­fied crim­i­nal record check authen­ti­cated by DFAIT and legalized by an embassy/consulate in Canada, at a reduced cost.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I email you a scanned ver­sion of my fin­ger­prints for elec­tronic trans­mis­sion to the RCMP?

We can­not process scanned ver­sion of fin­ger­prints. You would need to send us the orig­i­nal fin­ger­print form (via post or courier), along with the other doc­u­ments, as per the check-list.

I have a pho­to­copy of fin­ger­print form. Can I send it to you for processing?

We can­not process a pho­to­copy. You would need to send the orig­i­nal fin­ger­print form via mail or courier.

The police will take fingerprints with live-scan. Can they transmit fingerprints directly to you?

The police will take fingerprints with live-scan and print them on paper. We would need that printout.

There is no way to transmit fingerprints electronically from outside of Canada to our office or the RCMP.

The Police will send the fingerprints forms directly to your office. Is it okay?

Yes that's fine.

How would I know that you have received my documents for obtaining background check from Canada?

Once we receive your doc­u­ments and trans­mit fin­ger­prints to the RCMP (the same day), we will send you a con­fir­ma­tion email. Please do not keep on send­ing emails to check as to whether we have received your doc­u­ments or not.

Can I get my fin­ger­prints taken on the fingerprint form used by the police of the coun­try, I am liv­ing in?

Yes you can. You have to make sure that the fin­ger­print lay­out is the same as on the RCMP’s fingerprint form C-216C or the FBI’s fin­ger­print card FD258. We also accept fingerprints taken with live-scan and printed on the fingerprints form.

Once you receive my doc­u­ments, how long will it take to receive the Cana­dian Police Check?

The RCMP take 2, 3 weeks to process fin­ger­prints and after that, they send out the cer­ti­fied crim­i­nal record check (hard copy), via non-trackable Canada Post reg­u­lar mail.

If there is a crim­i­nal record, the RCMP can take from 1-4 months or even longer to send the results.

Can the RCMP send the Cana­dian Crim­i­nal Record Check to an address out­side of Canada?

Yes the RCMP can send the Cer­ti­fied Crim­i­nal Record Check to any address (in Canada or outside of Canada), at no addi­tional cost.

I need the RCMP’s Cer­ti­fied Crim­i­nal Record Check as soon as pos­si­ble. Can I request the RCMP to send it to your com­pany and you can then send it via courier?

Yes you can. You need to com­plete  and send third party con­sent form along with the other documents. We will receive RCMP's criminal record check and send it to you via courier, at an addi­tional courier fee.

Please send us a quick email pro­vid­ing your com­plete address for the courier cost quote.

I just need name and date of birth based police clear­ance (without fingerprints). Can I obtain it while liv­ing overseas?

Yes you can. Please send us a quick email to info@fingerscan.ca and we will send you the application.

Why do you ask for my photograph?

The pho­to­graph is printed on the cer­ti­fied crim­i­nal record check. With fingerprints, we also trans­mit a pho­to­graph of the applicant to the RCMP.

How can I pay for your services?

You can pay by a credit card (Visa or Mas­terCard only), Pay­Pal, email trans­fer (to info@fingerscan.ca), an inter­na­tional money order or bank draft.

If you want to pay via Pay­Pal, send us a quick mes­sage to request a Pay­Pal invoice. You do not need a PayPal account to pay via PayPal.

Can my friend or rel­a­tive pay on my behalf?

Yes they can. You can for­ward credit card pay­ment form to your friend or fam­ily mem­ber. They can com­plete it, sign it and email to us.

How can I check the sta­tus of my application?

Once we trans­mit fin­ger­prints to the RCMP, we will send you a con­fir­ma­tion email.

To check the status, you can call the RCMP at 613-998-6362 or send­ an email to CCRTIS-SCICTR@rcmp-grc.gc.ca.

The RCMP do not allow us to check the status or follow up with them.

Can I print the fin­ger­print form emailed by you and get my fin­ger­prints taken on it?

Yes you can.

Can RCMP send my Cer­ti­fied Crim­i­nal Record Check to my lawyer, immi­gra­tion office or a third party?

Yes it is pos­si­ble. You need to com­plete a third party con­sent form and write their address on it. The right thumb print on that form is mandatory.

When I went to the police to get my fin­ger­prints taken, I for­got to take my right thumb print on the third party con­sent form. Do I need to go back to the police to do it?

You can use a stamp pad (any color) and put right thumbprint on this form. If you are not sure about the clar­ity of the thumbprint, please send us 2, 3 forms and we will select the clear­est one.

The Cer­ti­fied Crim­i­nal Record Check issued by the RCMP needs to be apostilled in Canada. Do you also offer this service?

Yes we also offer this ser­vice at an addi­tional fee. Please let us know your require­ment and we will send you a price quote.
