CRB checks have been replaced by DBS checks. A caution will stay on the Police National Computer (PNC) forever but it will only show up on a DBS check if:

  • It has been less than 6 years since the caution was issued (2 if you were 18 at the time),

or

  • the offence that the caution was for is serious enough to be on the list of offences that will never be filtered.

A caution can be disclosed on a standard DBS check for six years, and on an enhanced check for both children's and adults' barred lists for life. After this time period, the caution is considered spent and would not normally appear on a basic check. However, certain professions and circumstances may require disclosure beyond this timeframe.

Will a caution from 7 years ago show on enhanced CRB check?

CRB checks were replaced by DBS checks in 2012. Cautions for offences included on the 'DBS list of offences never to be filtered from a criminal record check' will show in the PNC section of DBS check forever. If the caution is not on that list, it will stop showing up in the PNC section after 6 years from the date of cautions (2 years if under 18 at time of caution). On an enhanced DBS check, the police can include any intelligence they hold if they believe it is relevant to a recruitment decision.


How long does a caution stay on record?

So-called "cautions" are not violations of criminal statutes and thus do not (SHOULD not) appear on your criminal record. In my experience these "cautions" are only kept in local files which are used for reference by invistigators or authorities in the jurisdiction in which you live on the possibility you may come to their attention in the future. The above is wrong. A "caution" is classed as a conviction on your criminal record. Since September 2004, as a result of the Bichard Enquiry, a caution will stay on your record indefinitely as will any conviction for a recordable offence.

Will a caution show on a CRB check after six years?

In general, cautions are filtered from standard and enhanced checks on the Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) certificate after six years, provided certain conditions are met. However, they may still show on an enhanced check if they are deemed relevant to the role being applied for. It is recommended to check with the DBS or a legal professional for specific advice on your situation.


Will an enhanced CRB check bring up a police caution?

DBS checks replaced CRB checks in 2012. Cautions that have not been filtered will show up on standard and enhanced DBS checks. A caution will be filtered as long as it is not on the 'list of offences never to be filtered' and 6 years have passed (2 years if you were under 18 when you received the caution). On enhanced DBS checks, a filtered caution may still show if the police believe it is relevant to a recruitment decision.


If you were given a caution by transport police will it show up on your CRB check?

Once that time period has passed, it will only continue to show if one of the following is true:the offence is on the DBS 'List of offences that will never be filtered'orit is an enhanced DBS check and the police reasonably believe the caution is relevant to a recruitment decision.
