The Importance of Ink-Based Fingerprinting for Legal and Business Needs

Alisha Francis • November 30, 2024

Fingerprinting is an essential service for various professional and personal needs, from legal documentation to employment background checks. While electronic fingerprinting has become popular, traditional ink-based fingerprinting remains a reliable and trusted option. At ANF Signings, we specialize in providing accurate, professional ink-based fingerprinting services tailored to meet the requirements of different industries.


Why Choose Ink-Based Fingerprinting?

Ink-based fingerprinting is still the standard method accepted by many legal and regulatory bodies. Unlike digital scans, which may not be accepted in certain legal or official procedures, ink-based fingerprints offer a tangible, precise record that meets compliance needs. Whether you’re a lawyer needing fingerprints for a court case, an employer completing a pre-employment screening, or an individual applying for a professional license, our ink-based method ensures that your fingerprints are captured accurately and in accordance with strict guidelines.


How ANF Signings Makes It Easy

We understand that taking time out of your busy schedule to get fingerprinted can be inconvenient. That’s why ANF Signings offers both in-office and mobile fingerprinting services to bring our expertise to you. Our trained professionals are dedicated to providing seamless, efficient service that respects your time and ensures your prints are captured correctly the first time.


Experience and Reliability
