Frequently asked questions
Can I submit digital (Live Scan) fingerprints?⌄
In most cases no. Ink prints on form FD-258 are required because Thai Live Scan systems are not connected to FBI CJIS.
How long is an FBI background check valid?⌄
Usually six months, though it depends on the requesting body — confirm with your employer or institution before you order.
Do I need to travel to the United States?⌄
No. The entire process is handled from Thailand through an approved channeler and international courier.
What is the total cost?⌄
About USD 50–80 for the channeler and USD 60–100 for the Apostille, plus FedEx or DHL shipping — roughly THB 6,000–12,000 in total.
