Overseas Vetting Checks

What do I do if I want to coach/umpire/play cricket in the UK?

You must obtain a Vetting Check or ‘Certificate of Good Conduct’ from your Country of Origin.

In which countries can Vetting Checks be obtained?

Most countries now offer vetting checks and information on how to obtain an Overseas Vetting Check can be found on the CRB website.

If you are coming to the UK you are advised to obtain your check before you travel.

What should I do once I have obtained this check?

Clubs must notify the ECB Child Protection Team of the full name, date of birth and country of origin of all those working with children and confirm that the Vetting Check process has been completed by returning the Overseas Vetting Check Form:

ECB Overseas Vetting Form (161 KB)

The completed Overseas Vetting Check Form should be submitted to the ECB at:
