No they don't. Because even though they have the same genetic make-up, the ultimate shape of fingerprints are believed to be influenced by environmental factors during pregnancy, like nutrition, blood pressure, position in the womb and the growth rate of the fingers at the end of the first trimester. Thus, you will find similar partterns of whorls and ridges in the fingerprints of identical twins. But there will also be differences -- just as there are differences between the fingers on any individual's hands.

If it somewhat is unquestionably the case, fingerprints at the instant are not genetic and could account for differing prints in twins. additionally, while actual trauma happens to the fingerprint area, it could warp the print. So twins could start up with same prints, yet in the process the act of residing existence can regulate them.
