FBI “Identity History Summary” (IdHS) check (Departmental Order 556-73), commonly referred to as a “Rap Sheet” or “FBI Self Check,” is a fingerprint-based background check that provides access to all current criminal history on file with the FBI. The Summary provides the date of arrest, arrest charges, and disposition of the arrests as reported to the FBI. The report is compiled from reporting agencies to the FBI including all states, and federal agencies. All criminal history information on file with the FBI is generated in the report.

Accurate Biometrics recommends that an individual should get a set of their fingerprints on an FBI-258 fingerprint card through law enforcement or a live scan fingerprint vendor before they travel abroad, since fingerprint services are not always accessible abroad. Another consideration is to obtain a Departmental Order 566-73 (IdHS report) before travel.
