The FBI report itself is fast: 30 minutes to 24 hours. What catches people out is everything around it. This page helps Gladstone residents work out when to start so the finished document arrives before a deadline.
| What you need | Allow at least |
|---|---|
| FBI report for use in the United States | 2 days |
| FBI report with apostille | 3 weeks |
| With apostille and certified translation | 4 weeks |
| With apostille, translation and overseas shipping | 5 weeks |
These allow a small margin on top of our usual times: up to 24 hours for the report and about 10 business days for the apostille. Tell us your deadline when you book, so we can say straight away whether it is realistic.
Many consulates and employers abroad only accept an FBI check issued within a set window, often three to six months. If your application date is further away than that, wait. See FBI background check processing time.
