Prints + apostille under one roof 7–10 business days to process All 50 states, 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.

Why you're here

Common reasons people need an FBI check authenticated for Vietnam

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.
