In addition to the rolling fee charged by each location for taking your fingerprints, you may be required to pay a government fee for your background check. These fees vary depending on the state and the agency receiving your submission.
Florida Applicants:
If you’re submitting a Live Scan to the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE), the exact government fee will be calculated and displayed on the final step of our online enrollment process.
FBI Background Check:
For FBI Identity History Summary Checks (Departmental Order 556-73), the government fee is $18. This fee is standard nationwide and will be added to your order at checkout.
If you’re submitting your fingerprints to a California Department of Justice (DOJ) agency, government fees are determined based on the type of application and the requesting agency. Use the calculator below to determine the appropriate government fees for California Live Scan submissions.
