Frequently Asked Questions
Does an active warrant show up on a background check in Missouri?▼
Yes. Active warrants in Missouri appear on name-based criminal background checks through the Missouri State Highway Patrol – Criminal Records system the moment they are entered. Some employers also run a separate NCIC warrant query, which catches federal warrants as well.
Does an arrest show up on a background check before conviction in Missouri?▼
Yes — in Missouri, an arrest can appear on a name-based background check from the moment of booking, even before any court ruling. Whether it appears on an employment screening depends on the type of check (name-based vs. fingerprint-based) and how recent the arrest is.
How much does a Missouri background check cost?▼
A name-based background check in Missouri costs $15 through the Missouri State Highway Patrol – Criminal Records. Fingerprint-based checks for licensing or employment cost more and require submitting prints through an approved vendor. Court-issued conviction records may carry separate fees.
