10 Ways Globeia Beats Traditional Fingerprinting Services in India

If you’ve ever tried getting your fingerprints taken in India for an FBI Background Check, RCMP Criminal Record Check, or other international police check, you know the drill:

 

  • Wake up early, travel across the city (or even to another city) to find a “fingerprinting centre.”
  • Wait in line, only to be told you’re missing a form or a stamp.
  • Make multiple trips, because one smudge can mean starting over.
  • Endure weeks of uncertainty, wondering if your prints will even be accepted abroad.

For thousands of Indians each year - from PR applicants and students to corporates hiring internationally , this has been the only way. Until now.

Globeia has rewritten the rules.

Globeia India brings mobile ink fingerprinting directly to your home or office across India. Correct official forms, trained associates, and a structured process that coordinates with Globeia Incorporated in Toronto for RCMP criminal record check submissions and Globeia Inc. in San Francisco for FBI background check submissions - so you skip the queues, the confusion, and the wasted travel time. 

In 2025, we’re setting the benchmark for speed, convenience, and accuracy in India’s fingerprinting industry.

Here are 10 reasons why Globeia leaves traditional fingerprinting services in the dust:

1. 100% Mobile Service - We Come to You

Imagine skipping the traffic, the queues, and the wasted half-day just to get your fingerprints taken. With Globeia India mobile ink fingerprinting service, you don’t have to go anywhere, we bring the service to your door.

Whether you’re at home in a quiet neighborhood, in a busy corporate office, or even on a university campus, our trained technicians arrive at your chosen location with all the required tools, fingerprint cards, and international-standard equipment.

This means:

  • Zero travel costs: no fuel, no taxi fares, no train rides.
  • No missed workdays: schedule an appointment before/after office hours or during a break.
  • Private and comfortable environment: no standing in lines with strangers or being rushed.
  • On-the-spot quality checks using AI-assisted tools to ensure your prints meet FBI, RCMP, and other global standards before we leave.

Traditional fingerprinting services put the burden on you:

  • Travel to their fixed centre (which might be in another city altogether).
  • Wait in line , sometimes for hours.
  • Risk having to rebook if the technician is busy, the machine is down, or the forms are unavailable.

With Globeia, the process flips - you stay where you are, we handle the rest. This is how fingerprinting should have always been.

2. Doorstep Service in 7+ Major Cities

For years, Indians outside a handful of metro cities had to either travel hundreds of kilometres or courier sensitive fingerprint cards to get their checks processed. Even in big cities, there was often just one authorized centre, making appointments scarce and inconvenient.

Globeia changes that. We offer doorstep mobile ink fingerprinting in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Hyderabad, Indore, Chandigarh, Amritsar, Patiala and more, covering residential areas, commercial hubs, and university campuses.

Our wide coverage means:

  • Faster appointment availability: you’re not competing with an entire city for a single time slot.
  • Reduced turnaround times: no delays caused by long backlogs at fixed centres.
  • Local expertise: our technicians know the area, the paperwork requirements, and how to adapt to your schedule.
  • Consistent quality: whether you’re in Bangalore’s tech parks, Delhi’s business districts, or a quiet suburb in Amritsar, you get the same internationally compliant service.

And we’re not stopping there, our network is expanding every month. Soon, more Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities in India will have direct access to world-class, mobile fingerprinting without the stress of long-distance travel.

With Globeia, location is no longer a barrier - it’s just a booking away.

3. RCMP Criminal Record Check and FBI Background Check Submissions Coordination

One of the biggest pitfalls in international fingerprinting is form rejection. Something most people do not discover until weeks later when their application is returned. Many local fingerprinting providers in India collect basic ink fingerprints but do not follow the specific technical requirements needed for Canadian RCMP criminal record check submissions or FBI background checks- leading to delays and wasted time.

Here is how Globeia India handles this differently:

  • For RCMP Criminal Record Checks:  Globeia India's trained associates collect ink fingerprints on the official fingerprinting form at your location. Completed forms are couriered to Globeia Incorporated in Toronto. This is our RCMP-accredited entity which digitizes them and submits them electronically to RCMP CCRTIS. The criminal record check result is issued directly by the RCMP.

Please note: Globeia India is not accredited by the RCMP. RCMP accreditation is held exclusively by Globeia Incorporated in Toronto, Canada. The RCMP does not accredit private fingerprinting companies outside of Canada.

  • For FBI Background Checks: Globeia India's trained associates collect rolled ink impressions on official FD-258/FD-1164 fingerprint cards. Completed cards are mailed to Globeia Inc. in San Francisco for processing and submission to the FBI.

Why this matters:

  • Correct official forms used for every submission- C-216C for RCMP, FD-258/FD-1164 for FBI.
  • Every impression reviewed on-site before dispatch- reducing the risk of rejection due to unclear prints.
  • Structured coordination through the appropriate Globeia office for each submission type.

With Globeia, your fingerprints are prepared to meet the gold standard for international compliance - greatly reducing the risk of rejection and helping your application move forward faster.

4. SmartForm Technology

If you have ever tried to complete an international fingerprinting form manually, you know the uncertainty:

Which fields are mandatory? What format does the date go in? Do I use uppercase throughout? What if I misspell my birthplace?

Traditional services often hand you a form and leave you to figure it out. A single typo, skipped field, or incorrect date format can mean your submission is delayed or returned for correction.

Globeia eliminates that risk with our SmartForm technology:

  • Auto-validation: Every field is checked for spelling, formatting, and completeness before the form is dispatched.
  • Pre-filling from documents: Information from your ID documents is used to minimise manual entry errors.
  • Agency-specific requirements: SmartForm adjusts fields based on whether the submission is for RCMP, FBI, or another authority.
  • Pre-dispatch cross-check: Your form is reviewed before it leaves your hands- not after it reaches the receiving office

This means your submission arrives at Globeia Incorporated or Globeia Inc. correctly prepared, reducing the likelihood of processing delays caused by incomplete or incorrect forms.

 

  • Faster processing: No back-and-forth to fix mistakes.
  • Higher approval rates: Your submission is clean, accurate, and ready for authority.
  • Peace of mind: You know your forms are perfect before they leave your hands.

5. Same-Day Collection, Coordinated Submission

Time is often the biggest pain point for people needing fingerprinting in India for different checks. With traditional providers, the process can stretch into weeks because they:

  • Wait to batch multiple applications before sending them.
  • Rely on physical mailing of fingerprint cards overseas.
  • Have limited collection schedules, forcing you to wait for the next available slot.

Globeia India offers same-day or next-day collection appointments across its service cities. Once your ink fingerprints are collected and reviewed on-site, the completed forms are securely mailed to the appropriate office without delay. Globeia Incorporated in Toronto for RCMP submissions, or Globeia Inc. in San Francisco for FBI submissions.

  • RCMP processing: Once submitted by Globeia Incorporated to RCMP CCRTIS, processing ranges from 3 to 120 days and is determined by the RCMP based on application volume and individual circumstances. Mailing time from India to Toronto is additional.
  • FBI processing: Once submitted by Globeia Inc., processing timelines are determined entirely by the FBI and vary based on individual circumstances.

While Globeia India cannot control or influence the processing timelines set by the RCMP or the FBI, the collection and mailing coordination is handled promptly so your forms reach the right office without unnecessary delays on our end.

6. Fingerprinting Plus Documentation Support- All Coordinated

Most traditional fingerprinting services in India do only one thing: capture your fingerprints. Everything else - apostille, legalization, translation becomes your problem. That often means visiting: 

  • A fingerprint centre for collection.
  • A government or police office for certification.
  • A separate attestation or apostille agency.
  • A courier service to send your documents abroad.

Globeia India coordinates more than just fingerprinting. In one booking, we can assist with:

  • Ink fingerprint collection for RCMP criminal record checks, FBI background checks, and FINRA registration.
  • International police clearance fingerprinting for Australia, Singapore, UAE, Hong Kong, and other countries.
  • Apostille services coordinated through official government authorities such as Global Affairs Canada and relevant embassies on your behalf.
  • Translation services for immigration, legal, and regulatory submissions.

Please note: Globeia does not directly apostille official government documents and does not perform apostille services on behalf of any government authority. All apostille and authentication requests are submitted by our company to the designated competent government authority on your behalf.

Instead of managing multiple providers across the city, you work with Globeia India- one team that coordinates each step through the right channel.

7. Corporate and Bulk Fingerprinting Solutions

When companies need to send multiple employees abroad for work assignments, training, or overseas projects, fingerprinting can quickly turn into a logistical headache. Traditional providers often expect each employee to visit a fixed centre individually, sometimes in another city. That means wasted work hours, travel costs, and disruption to your operations.

Globeia flips the script. Our corporate and bulk fingerprinting service brings the process directly to your workplace. Whether you need fingerprints for 5 people or 500. We set up at your office, conference room, or training facility and handle everyone’s prints in a single session.

This is especially valuable for:

  • IT companies sending tech teams abroad for on-site projects.
  • Multinational corporations onboarding new hires in India for global placements.
  • BPO/KPO firms deploying teams overseas.
  • Aviation, shipping, and logistics companies handling large crew movements.

How submissions are managed:

  • RCMP criminal record check forms are mailed to Globeia Incorporated in Toronto for digitization and electronic submission to RCMP CCRTIS.
  • FBI background check cards are mailed to Globeia Inc. in San Francisco for processing and submission to the FBI.
  • Every form is reviewed on-site and SmartForm-validated before dispatch.

HR teams get real-time visibility through Globeia's SmartPortal throughout the process- no chasing updates, no uncertainty.

8. Transparent Pricing - No Hidden Costs

If you’ve ever dealt with a traditional fingerprinting provider, you might have experienced the dreaded “surprise charges” - courier fees, “special form” costs, reprint fees, or even extra charges for simple document handling. Not only is this frustrating, it makes budgeting unpredictable.

At Globeia, what you see is what you pay. Our prices are:

  • Displayed clearly on our website.
  • Inclusive of all standard service elements - no hidden courier add-ons.
  • Fair for both individual and corporate clients.

Transparent pricing also means knowing upfront what is included and what falls outside the service scope, such as the federal processing fee payable to the Receiver General of Canada for RCMP submissions, which is a government charge separate from Globeia India's service fee. 

9. Expert Immigration Knowledge

Fingerprinting for international police checks isn’t just about rolling your fingers - it’s about making sure your submission meets specific immigration requirements that vary by country, visa type, and even the applicant’s personal circumstances.

Many traditional providers in India simply take your prints, hand over the card, and leave the rest to you. If your forms are incomplete or you’re missing a required document, you’ll only find out weeks later when your application is rejected , costing you both time and money.

Globeia’s associates are trained to do more than just collect fingerprints:

  • We know exactly what the RCMP requires for Canadian PR applications, and we’ll help you avoid common pitfalls like incomplete identity forms or incorrect submission coordination.
  • For FBI background checks, we guide you through everything from form completion to submission standards, ensuring your prints are processed without avoidable delays.
  • For other international police clearances: Associates bring the correct official forms for the destination authority whether it is Australia AFP, Singapore Police Force, Hong Kong CNCC, UAE, or another country, ensuring your fingerprints are prepared to that authority's specific requirements. 

This immigration-savvy approach means your fingerprints don’t just look good on paper, they’re ready to pass the strictest global compliance checks.

10. Trusted by Clients Across Multiple Countries

Over the years, Globeia India has become a trusted fingerprinting partner for individuals, immigration consultants, and corporate teams across India and internationally. While many traditional providers focus only on walk-in clients from their immediate area, Globeia India's mobile service and structured coordination with Globeia Incorporated and Globeia Inc. make it accessible to applicants across the country. 

Who trusts Globeia?
