Certified. Professional. Dependable.
Outside Canada and need a fingerprint based Canadian Police Certificate?
Red Seal Notary, an accredited fingerprinting agency, offers card scan services to digitize and submit ink fingerprints taken by the local police overseas to the RCMP electronically.
Our professionally trained personnel can assist individuals who require fingerprints for visas, Immigration, Citizenship, Employment, Licenses, Government Security Screenings and numerous other purposes.
Where to start:
First
Moisturize the skin on your fingers and avoid using harsh cleaners a few days before taking your prints to maximize print quality, making it more likely your fingerprints can be processed by the RCMP. Dry skin is the most common cause of poor quality prints, and thus the most common cause of delays.
Although for the FBI, these tips for proper fingerprinting are helpful for getting quality fingerprint impressions.
