DSA will write to you to ask you to post your certificate if it has anything listed on it. You must send the original – you can’t send a copy. This will then be returned to you.

Your application to become an approved driving instructor, renew your registration or re-register could be delayed if you don’t send your certificate as soon as DSA asks for it.

You don’t need to send your certificate unless DSA tells you to.

The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) has announced that it will be removing certain specified old and minor offences from criminal record certificates from 29 May 2013.

The filtering rules and the list of offences that will never be filtered have been published by DBS.
