YOUR FINGERPRINTING PARTNER

Globeia Mohali | Mobile Fingerprinting
for RCMP, FBI and International Background Checks

Mohali is one of the busiest cities in Punjab for immigration to Canada. Neighborhoods like Phase 7, Sector 82, and the stretch toward Kharar and Zirakpur see a lot of PR and citizenship applications going to Canada every day. At the same time, IT City and QuarkCity keep sending engineers and IT professionals toward US visas and green cards. As all this immigration activity has grown, so has the need for accurate fingerprint-based background checks. Globeia set up its Mohali operation around this exact need.

We send trained associates directly to homes, offices, and IT parks across the city, carrying the official, country-specific cards each case requires, so fingerprinting gets done right the first time.

From a single fingerprint appointment to complete international document coordination, Globeia simplifies every step of the process. Our associates arrive with the correct country-specific fingerprint cards and application forms, ensuring your fingerprints meet the requirements of authorities including the RCMP, FBI, Australia, New Zealand, Singapore, Hong Kong, UAE and more. Not only this, our Mohali team coordinates with the international processing offices to send your fingerprints to the right authority abroad: the RCMP-accredited Globeia Incorporated office in Canada for submission to the RCMP and Globeia Inc. in the USA for submission to the FBI.
