Ink fingerprinting remains an essential requirement for many professional licensing boards, government agencies, and regulatory bodies that still rely on traditional hard-copy fingerprint cards for identity verification and background screening purposes.
We understand that navigating the fingerprinting process can feel confusing and stressful, especially when your application or employment opportunity depends on submitting perfectly rolled and legible prints that meet strict agency standards. Our certified collectors are extensively trained in the art and science of ink fingerprinting, ensuring that every card we produce contains clear, complete, and accurately rolled prints that will be accepted by reviewing authorities without rejection or delay.
We take the time to clean your fingers thoroughly, apply the appropriate amount of ink, and carefully roll each finger from nail to nail to capture the full ridge detail that agencies require for proper identification. Whether you are applying for a professional license, seeking employment with a government contractor, or fulfilling requirements for a foreign government, we treat every fingerprint card with the same careful attention to detail that we bring to all our collection services.


Our ink fingerprinting service uses the standard FD-258 fingerprint cards that are widely accepted by state and federal regulatory boards, law enforcement agencies, and licensing authorities across the United States and internationally. We serve individual applicants who need to mail their completed physical cards to state or federal regulatory boards for employment, licensing, or background checks, as well as those who require hard-copy fingerprint cards for foreign governments or specific agencies that do not accept electronic submissions.
Each fingerprinting session begins with proper identification verification using your government-issued photo ID to ensure that the prints we capture are correctly associated with your identity. Our collectors then clean your fingers to remove any oils or residues that could affect print quality, apply the ink evenly, and carefully roll each finger to capture the full impression required for accurate analysis.
We understand that rejected fingerprint cards can cause frustrating delays in your application process, which is why we take every precaution to ensure that your prints are clear, complete, and compliant with agency requirements. After completing your card, we provide you with the finished product and guidance on how to properly submit it to the requesting agency for processing.
