We’ll help you complete the process, whether you need a basic, standard or enhanced criminal records check
You can apply for a basic Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check online by visiting the GOV.UK site. If you're unable to validate your identity online, you can get verified by visiting a Post Office branch instead. To apply for this option, start your online application on the GOV.UK DBS check application page and select ‘Prove your identity in person'.
You may need a Standard or Enhanced DBS check if your employer needs a higher level of assurance that you're suitable for a certain job. This might include jobs like accountants, legal assistants, those working with children or vulnerable adults.
Bring your original documents, verification letter and your application. Find a participating Post Office.
We'll check and process your documents to confirm your identity.
Post Office returns a verification report to the organisation who will then complete your DBS check.
