Fingerprinting Services

[Periwinkle]

I need to get my fingerprints taken (not digitally, in ink) for an FBI background check. This is for a working visa for another country. Does anyone know where I might be able to have this done? Are there places which provide fingerprinting services or should I go to a police station? Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Is it done in embassy? From I know they are doing fingerprints scanning to issue biometric passport.

Hey Smallworld, I think that they do but I can't get them done digitally. They must be done in ink on the FD 258, the official FBI fingerprint card, and then mailed in. Thanks for the reply, though. I might just have to try and do them myself!

You can do it yourself, which isn't difficult but alternatively any police officer in any Polsek would be happy to help for a small fee. I can't remember for what it was but I've it done for Rp 10.000 a few years ago.
If you can't find anyone who understand what you need, you can go to the POLDA and ask to be directed to the Intelkam office there. They for sure can be of help and it isn't rare that they have officers who can speak English.

Thanks, atlantis! I'll try and get that done today.
