Background Checks
for UK Employers

Avvanz covers DBS checks (Basic, Standard, Enhanced), BPSS screening, right to work verification, employment history, qualification checks, credit and directorship checks, global sanctions and AML screening, and more — all through one platform.

Most checks are returned within 5–10 business days. DBS checks depend on the Disclosure and Barring Service processing times — we'll keep you updated throughout. Right to work and identity checks often return faster.
