Can I Do Fingerprinting Without an Appointment?
The Answer is YES. Here is Why Walk-Ins are Faster & Easier in Surrey.
In a rush? We hear it every day: “I just got this letter, and I need my fingerprints done yesterday.”
Many applicants try to book with local police stations, only to find the next available appointment is weeks away. Police departments prioritize active investigations, meaning civil fingerprinting (for jobs or visas) often falls to the bottom of the list.
At Surrey Fingerprint Company, we operate differently. We are a dedicated biometric facility, which means we have the capacity, staff, and technology to handle walk-in clients instantly.
Why We Welcome Walk-Ins
⚡ 15-Minute Turnaround
For 90% of our walk-in clients, the wait time is less than 15 minutes. Our advanced digital scanning stations allow us to process a client in approximately 10 minutes, keeping the line moving quickly.
📅 Flexible Schedule
Your schedule is unpredictable. Whether you are on your lunch break, just finished work, or have a sudden deadline, you can show up whenever our doors are open.
Which Services Accept Walk-Ins?
Unlike some clinics that restrict walk-ins to simple tasks, we offer our full range of services to walk-in clients:
- ✓
RCMP Digital Fingerprinting (Civil) - ✓
Ink & Roll Fingerprinting (FBI / Foreign Police Checks) - ✓
Vulnerable Sector Checks (with agency authorization) - ✓
Name-Based Criminal Record Checks
💡 Insider Tip: Best Times to Visit
While walk-ins are always welcome, if you want zero wait time, we recommend avoiding the “Lunch Rush” (12:00 PM – 1:00 PM).
Quietest Hours: Mornings between 9:30 AM – 11:00 AM, or mid-afternoons between 2:00 PM – 4:00 PM.
The Walk-In Checklist
To ensure your walk-in experience is seamless, please check these items before you leave your house. We cannot process your fingerprints without them.

- Secondary ID: Can be without a photo (Care Card, Birth Certificate, Credit Card with name).
- Request Letter: If you were given a letter/file number by an employer or immigration, you MUST bring it.
- Form of Payment: We accept Debit, Credit, and Cash.
