	Note 1. Basis of Presentation and Nature of Operations
	Interim Results
	The unaudited consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). These rules and regulations permit some of the information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) to be condensed or omitted. In management’s opinion, the unaudited consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature, necessary for a fair presentation of the results of operations and financial position of ICF International, Inc. and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2013, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2013. Certain immaterial amounts in the 2012 consolidated financial statements have been reclassified to conform to current-year presentation. The Company believes the carrying values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and other current liabilities approximate their estimated fair values at September 30, 2013, due to their short maturities. The Company recognizes activity related to its forward contract agreements and contingent consideration payable in connection with acquisitions at fair value. At September 30, 2013, the impact of the hedges and contingent consideration payable to the consolidated financial statements was immaterial. The Company believes the carrying value of the lines of credit payable approximate the estimated fair value for debt with similar terms, interest rates, and remaining maturities currently available to companies with similar credit ratings at September 30, 2013. These unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2012, and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K, filed with the SEC on March 1, 2013.

	Note 2. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
	Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets
	The Company performs its annual goodwill impairment review as of September 30 of each year. For the purposes of performing this review, the Company has concluded that it is one reporting unit consistent with its one reportable segment. For the annual impairment review as of September 30, 2013, the Company opted to perform a qualitative assessment of whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of the Company’s reporting unit is less than its carrying amount. If, after completing the qualitative assessment, the Company determines that it is not more likely than not that the carrying value exceeds the estimated fair value, it may conclude that no impairment exists. If the Company concludes otherwise, a two-step goodwill impairment test must be performed which includes a comparison of the fair value of the reporting unit to the carrying value. If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, a second calculation is required to measure the amount of goodwill impairment loss to be recognized for that reporting unit, if any.
	The Company’s qualitative analysis as of September 30, 2013 included macroeconomic and industry and market specific considerations, financial performance indicators and measurements, and other factors. Based on the qualitative assessment, the Company determined that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the Company’s one reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, and thus the two-step impairment test is not required to be performed for 2013. Therefore, based upon management’s review, no goodwill impairment charge was required as of September 30, 2013. Historically, the Company has recorded no goodwill impairment charges.

	Ecommerce Accelerator LLC (“ECA”)
	In July 2013, the Company hired the staff of, and purchased certain assets and liabilities from, ECA, an e-commerce technology services firm based in New York, New York. In connection with the acquisition, the Company recorded a contingent consideration payable reflected in other long-term liabilities. The purchase was immaterial to the Company’s financial statements taken as a whole. The addition of ECA enhanced the Company’s multi-channel, end-to-end e-commerce solutions.
	Symbiotic Engineering, L.L.C. (“Symbiotic”)
	In September 2012, the Company hired the staff of, and purchased certain assets and liabilities from, Symbiotic, a company based in Boulder, Colorado. The purchase was immaterial to the Company’s financial statements taken as a whole. The purchase included the Sustainability Information Management System platform, which brought the Company opportunities to provide utility clients information and analyses for better managing costs, promoting energy efficiency, protecting the environment, and creating consumer value.
	GHK Holdings Limited (“GHK”)
	In February 2012, the Company completed the acquisition of GHK. With its headquarters in London, GHK is a multi-disciplinary consultancy serving government and commercial clients on environment, employment, health, education and training, transportation, social policy, business and economic development, and international development issues. The purchase was immaterial to the Company’s financial statements taken as a whole.

	Allowance for doubtful accounts		(1,599	)		(1,448	)
	Contract receivables, net	$	216,439		$	204,938
	Contract receivables, net of the established allowance for doubtful accounts, are stated at amounts expected to be realized in future periods. Unbilled receivables result from revenue that has been earned in advance of billing. Unbilled receivables can be invoiced at contractually defined intervals or milestones, as well as upon completion of the contract or government audits. The Company anticipates that the majority of unbilled receivables will be substantially billed and collected within one year, and therefore, classifies them as current assets in accordance with industry practice.
	The Company considers a number of factors in its estimate of allowance for doubtful accounts, including the customer’s financial condition, historical collection experience, and other factors that may bear on collectability of the receivables. The Company writes off contract receivables when such amounts are determined to be uncollectible. Losses have historically been within management’s expectations.

	Litigation and Claims
	The Company is involved in various legal matters and proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. While these matters and proceedings cause it to incur costs, including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees, the Company currently believes that any ultimate liability arising out of these matters and proceedings will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
	Road Home Contract
	Although no legal proceeding has been commenced, the Company has received correspondence from the Office of Community Development of the State of Louisiana, claiming that the Company is responsible for the overpayment of Road Home program grant funds to some grant applicants. Based on statements of the Office of Community Development, the Company could receive additional correspondence from the Office of Community Development related to the claim. The total claim received by the Company to date is approximately $70 million. The Company believes this claim has no merit, intends to vigorously defend its position, and has therefore not recorded a liability as of September 30, 2013.

Long-term Debt [Text Block]	'
	Note 6. Long-Term Debt
	The Company entered into a Third Amended and Restated Business Loan and Security Agreement (the “Credit Facility”) on March 14, 2012, as amended May 29, 2012 and July 31, 2013, with a syndication of eleven commercial banks to allow for borrowings of up to $500.0 million for a period of five years (maturing March 14, 2017) under a revolving line of credit. The Credit Facility amends and restates the Company’s previous agreement entered into on February 20, 2008, which had allowed for borrowings of up to $350.0 million. The Credit Facility provides for borrowings of up to $400.0 million without a borrowing base requirement, subject to limitations based upon certain financial, performance-based calculations. The Credit Facility also provides for an “accordion feature,” which permits additional revolving credit commitments of up to $100.0 million, subject to lenders’ approval. The Company incurred approximately $2.0 million in additional debt issuance costs related to amending the Credit Facility, which are amortized over the term of the agreement. The Credit Facility is collateralized by substantially all of the assets of the Company and requires that the Company remain in compliance with certain financial and non-financial covenants. The financial covenants, as defined in the Credit Facility, require, among other things, that the Company maintain, on a consolidated basis for each quarter, a fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.25 to 1.00 and a leverage ratio of not more than 3.75 to 1.00. As of September 30, 2013, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the Credit Facility.
	The Company has the ability to borrow funds under its Credit Facility at interest rates based on both LIBOR and prime rates, at its discretion, plus their applicable margins. Interest rates on debt outstanding ranged from 1.43% to 1.46% for the first nine months of 2013.
	As of September 30, 2013, the Company had $64.1 million in long-term debt outstanding, $3.0 million in outstanding letters of credit, and unused borrowing capacity of $332.9 million under the Credit Facility. Available borrowings under the Credit Facility, that are based on earnings and leverage ratios and exclude the accordion feature, were $295.6 million.

	Note 7. Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation
	On June 7, 2013, the Company’s stockholders ratified an amendment (the “Amendment”) to the ICF International, Inc. 2010 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”). The Amendment increased the shares available for issuance under the Omnibus Plan by 1,750,000 shares from 1,800,000 to 3,550,000. Except as noted below, the other terms of the Omnibus Plan did not change.
	The Omnibus Plan provides for the granting of options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), performance shares, performance units, cash-based awards, and other stock-based awards to all officers, key employees, and non-employee directors of the Company. Under the Amendment, shares awarded that are not stock options or stock appreciation rights, are counted as 1.93 shares deducted for every one share delivered under those awards.
	The Company recognized stock-based compensation expense of $2.3 million and $2.5 million for the three months ended September 30, 2013, and September 30, 2012, respectively, and $6.6 million and $6.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2013, and September 30, 2012, respectively. Unrecognized compensation expense of $17.4 million as of September 30, 2013, related to unvested stock options and unsettled RSUs, will be recognized over a weighted-average period of approximately two years. During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company granted approximately 0.4 million shares in the form of equity compensation, including stock options, and stock-settled RSUs. As of September 30, 2013, the Company had approximately 2.1 million shares available for grant under the Omnibus Plan.
	In addition to stock options and RSUs, the Company has begun to utilize Cash-Settled RSUs (“CSRSUs”) as a form of compensation. The CSRSUs vest annually over a four-year vesting term, and are settled only in cash payments. The cash payment is based on the fair value of the Company’s stock price at the vesting date, calculated by multiplying the number of CSRSUs vested by the Company’s closing stock price on the vesting date. The payment is subject to a maximum payment cap and a minimum payment floor. The Company treats these awards as liability-classified awards, and therefore accounts for them at fair value. These awards have no impact on the shares available for grant under the Omnibus Plan, and have no impact on the calculated shares used in earnings per share calculations.
	During the nine months ended September 30, 2013, the Company awarded 0.2 million CSRSUs to its employees. The weighted-average grant date fair value of CSRSUs was $27.77 per share. Compensation expense related to CSRSUs computed under the fair value method for the three months and nine months ended September 30, 2013, was $0.4 million and $0.8 million, respectively, based on the Company’s closing stock price of $35.41 per share as of September 30, 2013. The unrecognized expense related to CSRSUs totaled approximately $5.8 million at September 30, 2013. These costs are expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 3.5 years. The aggregate intrinsic value of CSRSUs at September 30, 2013 that are expected to vest was approximately $6.6 million.

	Note 8. Income Taxes
	The Company’s effective tax rate for the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, was 33.8% and 37.4%, respectively.
	The Company is subject to income taxes in the U.S. and various state and foreign jurisdictions. Tax statutes and regulations within each jurisdiction are subject to interpretation and require the application of significant judgment. The Company remains subject to examination by the U.S. and state jurisdictions for tax years 2009 through 2012 and 2008 through 2012, respectively. The Company also remains subject to examination by foreign jurisdictions for tax years 2005 through 2012.
	The Company’s total liability for unrecognized tax benefits as of September 30, 2013 and September 30, 2012 was $1.2 million and $0.8 million, respectively. If recognized, the $1.2 million unrecognized tax benefit at September 30, 2013 would have a favorable impact on the Company’s effective tax rate. The Company anticipates a decrease in unrecognized tax benefits during the next 12 months of approximately $0.6 million.
	The Company reports penalties and interest related to unrecognized tax benefits in net income before tax. The Company has made no provision for deferred U.S. income taxes or additional foreign taxes on future unremitted earnings of its controlled foreign subsidiaries because the Company considers these earnings to be permanently invested.

Earnings per Share: [Abstract]	'
Earnings Per Share [Text Block]	'
	Note 9. Earnings Per Share
	Basic earnings per share (“EPS”) is computed by dividing reported net income by the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted EPS considers the potential dilution that could occur if common stock equivalents were exercised or converted into stock. The difference between the basic and diluted weighted-average equivalent shares with respect to the Company’s EPS calculation is due entirely to the assumed exercise of stock options and the vesting of restricted stock and settlement of RSUs. The dilutive effect of stock options and RSUs excludes shares that would be anti-dilutive to the calculation of EPS if included. For the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2013, approximately 0.2 million and 0.3 million anti-dilutive weighted-average shares were excluded from the calculation of EPS, respectively. For the three-month and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2012, approximately 0.5 million and 0.4 million anti-dilutive weighted-average shares were excluded from the calculation of EPS, respectively. The dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock, and RSUs for each period reported is summarized below:

If the estimated fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, a second calculation is required to measure the amount of goodwill impairment loss to be recognized for that reporting unit, if any.
	The Company’s qualitative analysis as of September 30, 2013 included macroeconomic and industry and market specific considerations, financial performance indicators and measurements, and other factors. Based on the qualitative assessment, the Company determined that it is not more likely than not that the fair value of the Company’s one reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, and thus the two-step impairment test is not required to be performed for 2013. Therefore, based upon management’s review, no goodwill impairment charge was required as of September 30, 2013. Historically, the Company has recorded no goodwill impairment charges.
