Big change: Vietnam joins the Hague Apostille Convention on September 11, 2026. From that date, your FBI background check needs an apostille from the U.S. Department of State instead of the old consular legalization. We take your prints, pull your FBI report in about 30 minutes, and authenticate it for Vietnam. Nationwide by mail.
The process is changing — for the better. Vietnam formally acceded to the Hague Apostille Convention, effective September 11, 2026. From that date, a single apostille from the U.S. Department of State replaces the multi-step consular legalization documents used to require. If your deadline falls before then, legalization may still apply — tell us your timing and we'll confirm the right path.
If Vietnam is asking for your FBI background check "apostilled," "authenticated," or "legalized," we take your fingerprints, get your FBI report in about 30 minutes, and authenticate it for Vietnam — one team, start to finish, on the right track for your timeline. Need the FBI check itself?
Vietnamese translation? Vietnamese authorities usually require a Vietnamese translation alongside the authenticated report. Get the authentication first, then translate the full packet — we handle translation too, typically $50 to $75 per page.
Not sure which document Vietnam wants, or how the timing affects you? Call or text and we'll walk you through it.
