A caution, final warning or reprimand for shoplifting will show up on a DBS check for 6 years after it was issued (2 years if you were under 18 at the time of caution). After which time, it will be removed. A conviction for shoplifting will show up on a DBS check for least 11 years after the conviction (5.5 years if you were under 18 at the time of conviction). After which time, it will be removed as long as you do not have any other conviction offences and you were not given a custodial sentence (regardless of whether or not it was served).
