Professional Ink Fingerprinting Services

Reliable ink fingerprinting for FBI cards, foreign fingerprint forms, police clearances, immigration applications, employment, licensing, and other official documentation requirements.

What Is Ink Fingerprinting?

Ink fingerprinting is a traditional method of recording fingerprints using ink and a designated fingerprint card. Each finger is carefully rolled or pressed onto the card to create clear fingerprint impressions.

Although digital fingerprinting is widely used today, ink fingerprinting is still required by certain government agencies, licensing authorities, employers, foreign police services, and international organizations. Some applications specifically require fingerprints to be completed on a particular card or form.

At FingerPrint Pro, we provide professional ink fingerprinting for FBI fingerprint cards, international fingerprint forms, police clearance applications, immigration, employment, licensing, and other official requirements.
