  Complete Your FD-1164 Fingerprint Card

  Visit your local law enforcement agency (police or sheriff’s office) to have your fingerprints taken on an FD-1164 fingerprint card. Call ahead to confirm they offer the service and have FD-1164 cards available. Some agencies may charge a fee.

  • You’ll need two completed FD-1164 cards. Request two sets at your appointment
  • Self-inked fingerprints are not accepted. Prints must be taken by law enforcement
  • Fill out all fields completely (name, date of birth, Social Security Number, etc.). Enter “N/A” for any field that does not apply
  • Under “Reason Fingerprinted,” write your ORI number as provided by your employer or requesting agency
  • Both you and the official taking your prints must sign the card

  Mail Your Fingerprint Card

  Mail one completed FD-1164 card along with a copy of your online registration confirmation to:

  DTIS
  10201 Fairfax Blvd, Suite 470
  Fairfax, VA 22030

  Keep your second card on file in case your fingerprints are rejected. Once DTIS receives your card, standard processing takes approximately five business days.
