Payment of eDBS Service invoices
When an application is submitted to the DBS eBulk System a charge is raised at the end of the month by the DBS and Warwickshire County Council must then pay this charge at the end of that month, whether a result has been received or not.
Because of this, we in turn invoice our customers based on the date that the application was submitted to the DBS.
Invoices are raised monthly and all applications submitted to the DBS between the dates stated on the invoice will be due for payment.
Our terms for payment are 30 days from the invoice date. Failure to pay within these terms can result in temporary deactivation of your access to the system.
