What types of fingerprinting services do you offer?

We provide FBI Departmental Order Live Scan fingerprinting for background checks, ATF fingerprinting for NFA and firearm applications (Form 1 and Form 4), FD-258 print-to-card fingerprinting for licensing and agency submissions, and FDLE fingerprinting for Florida background checks. All services are available in our Arlington office or as a mobile service at your location.

Do I need an appointment for fingerprinting?

Yes, all fingerprinting appointments must be scheduled in advance, whether at our Arlington office or for mobile service. This ensures we have the correct equipment and forms prepared for your specific fingerprinting needs.

What do I need to bring to my fingerprinting appointment?

You need a valid government-issued photo ID such as a driver's license, passport, or state-issued identification card. If you have specific forms or agency requirements, bring those as well.

Do you offer mobile fingerprinting services?

Yes, we provide mobile fingerprinting at your home, office, corporate location, or legal office. Mobile services are available throughout Washington DC, Northern Virginia, and Maryland. This is ideal for businesses needing fingerprinting for multiple employees or individuals who cannot visit our office.

Where is your fingerprinting office located?

Our fingerprinting office is located at 2300 Wilson Blvd, Suite 750, Arlington, VA 22201. It is conveniently located near the Courthouse Metro station, making it easily accessible from Washington DC, Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax County, and Maryland suburbs.

Can I get my FBI background check apostilled after fingerprinting?

Yes. Many clients who need FBI fingerprinting also require an apostille for their FBI background check for international use. DC Mobile Notary provides both fingerprinting and FBI apostille services, so we can handle the entire process from fingerprint capture to apostilled document delivery.

What is Live Scan fingerprinting?

Live Scan is a digital fingerprinting method that captures fingerprints electronically using a scanner instead of traditional ink and paper. It produces cleaner, more accurate prints that can be submitted electronically to the FBI and other agencies, reducing processing time and the chance of rejection due to poor print quality.

What areas do you serve for fingerprinting?

We serve the entire DC metropolitan area including Washington DC, Arlington, Alexandria, Fairfax, and surrounding Northern Virginia areas, as well as Montgomery County, Prince George's County, and nearby Maryland suburbs. Office appointments are at our Arlington, VA location, and mobile service covers the full DMV region.
