The FBI authentication letter you will receive in the mail through the FBI Channeler is a U.S. Federal Government document which can only be authenticated by the U.S. Department of State in Washington, D.C. This blue-tinted letter which is signed by the FBI Section Chief (Example: https://www.apostillefbi.com/fbi-apostille-example/ ) is printed on a special tamper-resistant paper. If you attempt to make a copy, it will read “Void” or “Copy Unauthorized”.
