Where to Obtain Fingerprinting Services

See list of law enforcement agencies where fingerprinting services are available.

Note: The Arizona Department of Public Safety does not provide a fingerprint card or perform fingerprinting.

In accordance with Arizona Revised Statutes 28-4361, fingerprints are required to be submitted with each application for a motor vehicle dealer license, so that a state and federal criminal records check can be conducted. This process is coordinated through the Arizona Department of Public Safety.

Please provide a single fingerprint card with a set of rolled fingerprints. Please make sure that the prints are legible. If they are smudged or blurred, the prints will be rejected and you will be required to submit an additional set.

While fingerprinting requirements vary depending on location, here are some general guidelines:

• Have at least one valid form of government-issued identification with a photograph available
• You may be charged a fee by the fingerprinting agency
• Sign the card in the presence of the law enforcement officer or the fingerprint technician
• You must have the individual rolling your fingerprints sign the card in the designated space
• You must use the blue and white fingerprint card # FD-258
  
  
  • Request Fingerprint Card

Mail your completed fingerprint card, along with your application to:

Please use an envelope that will keep the fingerprint card smooth, not folded or creased. Do not send the fingerprint card to the Arizona Department of Public Safety or the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
