You register a new organisation or branch if:
Your organisation is expanding, or
You have multiple branches that you want to use uCheck for screening and vetting.
If you are already registered with uCheck, you have two options for a new branch:
Register the branch as a sub-organisation under your existing head office.
Register the branch as a new head office (standalone).
Option 1: Register a Branch as a Sub-Organisation
When you register the branch as a sub-organisation:
uCheck links the branch to your existing head office account.
The payment method is the same as the head office.
The billing information is also the same as the head office.
Fee for a Sub-Organisation
There is a one-off fee of £12.00 (inclusive of VAT) to register a branch as a sub-organisation.
How You Request a Sub-Organisation
You need to contact uCheck to set up a sub-organisation on your existing account by either calling us or emailing [email protected].
Sub-accounts share the same payment method as the main account. While the invoice will indicate which sub-account each application belongs to, there will still be a single consolidated invoice.
Sub-accounts cannot be invoiced separately for specific services, such as DBS checks. Invoices are issued at the head office level.
Option 2: Register a Branch as a New Head Office
If you want the branch to be completely standalone, you can register it as a new head office.
When you register the branch as a head office:
The branch has its own account.
It can use a different payment method.
It can have its own billing information.
Fee for a New Head Office
There is a one-off fee of £58.80 (inclusive of VAT) to register a branch as a new head office.
How You Register a New Head Office
You can register the organisation online for this option at DBS Checks - DBS Check Online from uCheck.
Registration Timeframe
uCheck will endeavour to register the branch within 4 working hours.
