What Is an FBI Background Check?

An FBI Background Check, officially called the “Identity History Summary,” is a document issued by the Federal Bureau of Investigation that contains a record of an individual’s criminal history, or confirms the absence of such history, based on fingerprint submissions. 

This document is widely used for immigration, employment abroad, and security screening, particularly in countries like Saudi Arabia where official background verification is a standard procedure.

Why Apostille an FBI Background Check for Saudi Arabia?

Simply possessing the background check is not sufficient for official use outside the United States. It must be authenticated to confirm its legitimacy. Obtaining an apostille provides several key benefits:


  • Mandatory for Visa, Work Permit, and Residency Applications: Many Saudi ministries, consulates, and employers require an apostilled background check as part of the immigration or hiring process.

  • Verifies Authenticity to Saudi Authorities: The apostille stamp confirms that the background check was issued by a legitimate U.S. federal agency and has not been altered or forged.

  • Required for Business or Government Contracts: Professionals entering contracts with government or corporate entities in Saudi Arabia may be asked to submit a certified FBI Background Check

    for compliance and security clearance.

  • Accelerates Official Procedures: Apostilled documents are accepted faster and with fewer questions, streamlining visa processing, HR onboarding, and legal procedures.
