Basic DBS Checks have arrived

OnlineDBS are now able to process Basic DBS Checks for Individuals and organisations across the UK. A Basic DBS check is now processed by the Disclosure and Barring Service and was previously processed by Disclosure Scotland. The check searches the applicants’ criminal history for any unspent cautions, warnings, reprimands and convictions.

Basic DBS checks can be applied for by anyone wanting a DBS check for themselves as an individual. There are no restrictions on industry or sector and this should be a vital part of organisations vetting and recruitment processes. The application must be completed by the person the check is for. You cannot apply for or on behalf of someone else.

Individuals can apply directly via OnlineDBS for employment or personal interest by completing our Basic Checks application form.

If you are an individual and wish to apply for a higher level of check, unfortunately you cannot do this directly through an umbrella company. You will need a company (usually your employer) or organisation to apply on your behalf.
