When does a criminal record go away?

In many countries, it never really does. Only certain portions of it may become sealed from 'public' viewing (e.g.: when you turn 18 your juvenile record is sealed - if you are granted an expungement, that specific crime is sealed). Other than that your criminal record is permanent.In the UK, it is current policy for criminal records to be stored on the Police National Computer (PNC) until you reach the age of 100, although some details may be stored for longer than that. However, whether you have to declare your criminal record (and whether it will show up on checks) will depend on:The reason you are being asked about your criminal recordThe type of criminal record check being performedThe age of offenceThe disposal of the offenceThe nature of the offence
