Out of State Fingerprinting Services

For individuals outside of Florida who need to complete fingerprinting for licensing or employment, Tru Printz offers a convenient solution. If you’re unable to get fingerprinted within the state, you can mail your fingerprint card to Tru Printz, where we use a hard card scanning process to create a profile with the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE) and submit your fingerprint card electronically. This service allows out-of-state applicants to meet Florida’s fingerprinting requirements without needing to travel. Here’s how the process works:

Important Note

Please note that the hard card scanning method has certain limitations. For example, service providers using this method may not be able to submit photographs, which means your fingerprints may not be entered into Florida’s Care Provider Background Screening Clearinghouse. The Clearinghouse shares background check results with various state agencies. If you’re applying for a position with an agency within the Clearinghouse, you may need to complete an additional background check to meet their requirements.
