How It Works (From Gijón, Spain — Fully Remote)

Step 1 — Fingerprinting in Spain

We’ll show you how to get fingerprints taken in or near Gijón, Spain:

Local police station (ink or digital onto FD-258 cards), or
Private fingerprinting center (FD-258 compliant)

Step 2 — We Submit to the FBI

We transmit your fingerprints to the FBI through authorized U.S. channels. Your FBI report is usually issued digitally (PDF) within 24–72 hours.

Step 3 — U.S. Apostille

We obtain the apostille from the U.S. Department of State – Office of Authentications so your FBI report is recognized in Spain.

Step 4 — Sworn Translation (Traducción Jurada)

If required, we coordinate a MAEC-authorized sworn translator so your document is accepted by Spanish offices, courts, universities, and notaries.

Step 5 — Secure Delivery

We ship your apostilled (and translated) FBI report to your address in Gijón (or anywhere in Spain) via tracked courier, or return it to a U.S. address if you prefer.

👉 Note (password-protected PDFs): If your FBI report is password-protected, include the password in our order form so we can process your apostille/translation without delay.
