Ordering Fingerprint Cards & Training Aids
How can I order fingerprint cards for my agency?
In order to request fingerprint cards and training aids, you must have an Originating Agency Identification (ORI) Number. If you do not have an ORI Number you will need to contact the FBI, CJIS Division, CCA File Unit, at (304) 625-4543 to obtain one. Once you have been assigned an ORI Number, complete the 1-178, CJIS Supply Requisition Form, to order fingerprint supplies and/or the 1-178a, CJIS Fingerprint Training Aids Supply Form, to order training materials. Fill out the forms below and submit them electronically with the SUBMIT button. You may also print and fax completed form(s) to the CJIS Division, Fingerprint Supply Center (FSC), at (304) 625-3984. If you have questions, contact the FSC at (304) 625-3983. If you are trying to order cards for an individual, please call our customer service at (304) 625-5590 for help in this matter.

What is an Originating Agency Identification (ORI) Number?
A nine-character identifier assigned to an agency. Agencies must identify their ORI Number on the requisition forms in order to receive fingerprint supplies and training aids.
Can I receive fingerprint cards without the ORI Number pre-printed on them?
Yes, agencies may request fingerprint cards with or without their ORI Number pre-printed on them. The requisition form has two columns used to identify the quantity of cards they need. One column is for the quantity without the ORI Number and one column is for the quantity to be pre-printed with the ORI Number. However, you must put your ORI Number at the bottom of the form even if you want them left blank.
Is there a cost for the fingerprint cards?

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. But on the FBI website, it is stated that ORI is mandatory. Did you received your PCC from USA without filling ORI?
Thanks
