Live Scan Fingerprinting

Effective September 1, 2005, the California Board requires a separate fingerprint transmission for each application submitted to the Board. As a result, you will need to have new fingerprints taken for your pharmacist license.

What is it?

Live Scan fingerprinting services enable authorized agencies to scan your fingerprints then submit them digitally to the California Board of Pharmacy.

Live Scan Elsewhere

Live Scan fingerprinting is provided by the UCSF Police Department. As of March 5, 2008, the price is $130. For details, see LiveScan Fingerprinting.

For all other locations, see Applicant Live Scan Fingerprint Services Locations and Hours of Operation to select a fingerprinting location near you and schedule an appointment.

When you appear for your appointment, bring:

  1. The Request For Live Scan Service forms (Pages 17, 18, & 19 of the CPJE application).
  2. A valid driver's license, California identification card, or passport.

Note: The fees include a rolling fee, a DOJ processing fee, and an FBI clearance fee. Only the rolling fee is listed on the website.

After Fingerprinting

The first Live Scan form remains with the Live Scan operator. The second form is submitted as part of your application -- be sure the operator signs it. You keep the third form for your records.
