At SmartHRCheqs™, we make ethical practices a priority in all our background-screening services, including international services. Our researchers operate with the highest ethical standards and adhere to all applicable local and international regulations.

Our team understands that access to reportable information differs significantly across countries. However, our researchers and investigators leverage their expertise in regional and local laws to navigate these complexities while maintaining ethical practices. This, combined with our rapid screening process, consistently yields high-quality information for our clients.

Our comprehensive international background checks encompass a wide range of elements to provide a thorough assessment of a candidate:

  • Identity Verification: Through verification of passports and other forms of identification as used in various countries, we can confirm the critical personally identifiable information of your international candidates.
  • International Criminal Record Searches: We can search criminal records in an extensive network covering over 200 countries and countless jurisdictions worldwide. Access to court records varies regionally. Contact us to learn more about specific guidelines in the countries where you require background screening!
  • Education Verifications: We confirm the legitimacy and details of a candidate’s reported educational qualifications.
  • Employment Verifications: We contact previous employers to verify employment history and job performance details.
  • Global sanctions: The General Services Administration search is conducted by individual name and searches all active exclusion records created by the federal government, identifying parties excluded from receiving federal contracts, certain subcontracts, and certain types of federal financial and nonfinancial assistance and benefits.
    • Over 800 international aggregated regulatory sanction and enforcement most-wanted lists with over 1.4 million profiles searched. This solution is tailored to support numerous due-diligence needs related to the US Patriot Act, sanctions, the know your customer (KYC) process, anti-money laundering (AML), anti-corruption and bribery, the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), countering financing of terrorism (CFT), and the UK Bribery Act (UKBA). Sources (800+) include Interpol Most Wanted, US Secret Service, Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC), UK Financial Services Authority (FSA), UK Bribery, Specially Designated Nationals (SDN), World Bank debarred parties, Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Canadian Office of the Superintendent of Financial Institutions (OSFI), and the German Federal Financial Supervisory Authority (BaFin). The report includes up to three records. Additional records are available upon request at an additional charge.
  • Reference Checks: We reach out to professional references provided by the candidate to gather additional insights. We can also develop independent references for more due diligence.
  • Office of Foreign Asset Control (OFAC)/Terrorist Watch List Searches: We screen candidates against relevant watch lists to identify risks.
  • Professional License Verification: We confirm the validity of any professional licenses reported by the candidate.
  • Motor Vehicle Records and Driver Abstracts (availability subject to local regulations): We can retrieve driving records when permitted by local laws.
