DBS checks are processed and issued for England, Wales, the Channel Islands and the Isle of Man each year, helping employers make safer recruitment decisions. In addition to maintaining the adult and child barred list, the DBS also makes considered decisions on whether to bar an individual from engaging in regulated activities from appearing on one or both lists.
In other countries, such as India, the Police Clearance Certificate (PCC) is equivalent to the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS). Under the Protection of Freedoms Act of 2012, the DBS merged the functions of the Criminal Records Bureau (CRB) and the Independent Safeguarding Authority (ISA) to create an independent public body. If you need a DBS from the UK, you may contact us to learn more about it and we will proceed with the application.
