Paper guide
FBI / federal document
Florida cannot stamp an FBI report, a U.S. passport, or other federal documents. That filing goes to Washington, not Tallahassee.
Why this is a different line
The Florida Department of State only stamps Florida documents. An FBI identity-history report is federal. If you send it to Tallahassee, they will refuse it.
We can still take the file and route it on the federal path. Do not pay for a Florida stamp on this document. Tell us on the order form that it is federal.
What to do instead
If the foreign office wants Florida criminal history, use the Florida criminal-history page. If they want FBI, we talk through Washington timing and price before you ship.

Questions people ask
Can you just stamp it in Tallahassee anyway?
No. The state will reject it.
Is it faster than Florida?
Usually slower. Federal timing is its own line.
