If Your Fingerprints Are Rejected
Rejections happen — here's what to know
FDLE occasionally rejects prints due to poor ridge quality, worn skin, or dry fingertips — not because of anything on your record. Rejection is uncommon with digital Live Scan equipment, but it does happen.
- If FDLE rejects your prints, you will receive a re-print notice.
- Sky Bright LiveScan re-prints at no additional charge.
- We will schedule a new appointment quickly — same-day is often available.
- Moisturizing your fingertips for a few days before your appointment reduces rejection risk.
