An FBI background check, also known as an Identity History Summary, is a criminal history report issued by the FBI's Criminal Justice Information Services (CJIS) Division. It’s used to verify your legal standing when dealing with foreign governments or institutions. When this document needs to be recognized internationally, it must be apostilled or authenticated by the U.S. Department of State — the only federal agency authorized to issue apostilles for FBI reports. When Do You Need an Apostilled FBI Background Report? An apostille is required when presenting your FBI background check in a country that is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. Common reasons include: Employment abroad Dual citizenship (e.g., Italy, Spain, Portugal) Long-term visa or residency applications International marriage or divorce Teaching English overseas (TEFL/TESOL) Foreign adoption processes Overseas retirement and relocation Opening a business abroad Government or military contracting abroad Even if your destination country is not part of the Hague Convention, Boston Notary Service can assist with authentication and legalization for non-Hague countries via their consulates or embassies.
