Public Fingerprinting- Live Scan Information

Live Scan fingerprint stations are available to assist the public for the purposes of pre-employment. Live Scan has the ability to digitally transmit your fingerprints to the California State Department of Justice. You may also have your fingerprints produced on a hard copy, which you or your employer can mail to the necessary agency.

When an applicant wishes to use the Live Scan services, he or she will need to provide a current and valid California Driver's License or California Identification Card. Also accepted are passports, out of state Driver's Licenses, military ID cards, and ID from the Mexican Consulate. The applicant must also produce a "Request for Live Scan Service", formerly known as a fingerprint card. They can obtain the Live Scan form, from the requesting agency. We DO NOT provide Live Scan service forms or fingerprint cards. The Live Scan operator will enter information from the submission form and capture the fingerprint images. The captured information is immediately transmitted to the Dept. of Justice over a telephone line.
