There are two types of checks:
If you are a volunteer it’s free of charge for either check. However, there is an administration fee payable to us for all CRB applications to cover the costs of processing and administration of the CRB service. Some organisations may pay the fees for you.
If you are employed, then whichever check is required will be added to the administration fee and payment will be due on submission of your application. If your employer is paying for the check then an invoice will be sent to them at the end of each calendar month where there is an approved account.

Please note there are no VAT charges applicable to CRB applications.
If you have any further questions please contact your local VCS office and ask for a CRB advisor.
