Why are my fingerprints needed on the fingerprint cards?

Fingerprints are used to identify a person and are often already included in a passport. Some countries want to know in advance who is entering their country, for example to work. The Fingerprint Card FD-258 for the United States of America is particularly often filled out when fingerprints are submitted.

In order to be able to evaluate the fingerprints and record them by machine, it is necessary that they have a certain quality, which is ensured by the expert. To do this, he uses a special coloured agent so that there are no scattered prints on the fingerprint form. We record each finger individually.

Embassies or consulates in Germany do not take fingerprints. Therefore, if you need a copy of a form with your fingerprints in Germany, you must come to a company like ours.
