Basic Disclosures
The Basic Disclosure Certificate will show details of all convictions considered to be unspent under the Rehabilitation of Offenders (Northern Ireland) Order 1978, or state that no such convictions were found.
Anyone may apply for a Basic Disclosure by
- completing the Application Form,
- having the PSNI validate their identity and
- by paying the required fee to AccessNI.
An applicant may be asked by their employer to apply for a Basic Disclosure as part of the recruitment process.
Applicants may ask AccessNI to send their Disclosure Certificate to their potential employer and this can be done by completing the relevant section on the Disclosure Certificate Application Form.
Applicants residing outside Northern Ireland may contact us to discuss identification validation for Basic Checks.
See Guidance for completing the Disclosure Application Form
