The authority requesting your fingerprints decides. Fingerprint-based RCMP checks in Canada are usually digital, while many foreign checks require ink cards. If your instructions are unclear, contact us before booking.

No. IRCC biometrics must be given at an IRCC-authorized collection location, such as a Service Canada site, or as IRCC instructs. We can help you work out which type of fingerprinting you need.

For most services, no. An extra RCMP processing fee of C$25.00 applies only to the 8 application types listed under Common Services We Process, such as employment, pardon, visa and name change applications. Types such as Canadian citizenship and landed immigrant status carry no RCMP fee.

Two pieces of valid government-issued ID, plus the instructions or reference number from the organization requesting your fingerprints. A SIN card and a health card are not accepted as ID.

Processing times are set by the RCMP and change from time to time. Check the RCMP website for current times before you apply.
