OVERSEAS VETTING GUIDANCE – 2008
Overseas vetting is required by anyone from abroad who has a role within cricket that would normally require vetting whilst in the UK . It is intended for someone who is not a permanent resident in the UK - has not been / will not be in the UK long enough to apply for a UK CRB Enhanced Disclosure – valid for 3 years. Examples of this being:
* You should be appropriately vetted before you begin your role within cricket in the UK . Therefore, you should submit your overseas vetting application prior to coming over, or as soon as you arrive in the UK . It is easier to obtain the required police clearance from your country whilst you are still over there.
* All required documentation needs to be sent to the ECB. Applications can be sent in via fax, email or post as long as information received is readable.
* All required documentation must be submitted together and only fully completed applications will be accepted. If anything is missing, the application will be returned straight away and we will not hold on to applications or enter you on the system as pending while waiting for missing documents to come in.
* If all is in order once the we have received your application prior to / upon your arrival, the ECB aims to review applications within the week of receiving it.
* Overseas vetting applications are only valid until December 31 st of the year that you apply for it. Therefore, if you intend on returning to the UK , you would need to re-submit an up to date application if/when you do. On December 31 st you will automatically expire on the database and all documentation submitted that year will be destroyed due to data-protection reasons.
The appropriate option(s) need to be ticked in order for us to assess the reason for application and what kind of application it is as well as who to inform once vetted Full name needs to be listed as it appears on passport. This will be the name entered onto the database. If you have a nickname / shortened name, this needs to be filled in by the ‘Also known as' section All positions / relevant roles should be listed UK telephone numbers relate to those of yourself, the applicant only if applicable. Please do not list your club contact number here, that should be listed in the appropriate section on page 2 UK address needs to be the address that you are residing at whilst in the UK and NOT the club/club contacts address. This is the address that all correspondence will be sent to. If the club/contact wishes for correspondence to be sent to them instead, they should state so in a covering letter attached Date of birth, Country of Birth and Nationality to be filled in Passport number and date of issue to be filled in Work Permit / Visa number and date of issue (if applicable) – this is whatever is allowing you to be in the UK for that time Arrival dates and departure dates (approximates if exact not known) should be listed. Email address for yourself and/or contact should be listed if applicable. This will enable easier communication if needed Non UK address must be listed for our records and maybe for further correspondence if needed once you return to your country. If you are applying from / are residing abroad (eg. for ECBCA membership) then this is the only address that needs to be listed. Club information to be listed, if applicable A club contact needs to be listed. Their telephone number is preferable rather then the clubs telephone number Coaching qualifications and membership numbers to be listed if applicable Your signature is essential, and if part of an affiliated club, the Club Welfare Officers signature should support this.

Only a copy is required, as long as all the information can be clearly read The ‘certificate' is valid for the calendar year in which it was issued i.e January – December.

This is a copy of whatever is allowing you to be in the UK for the time that you are here. If you do not require a Visa/Work Permit to be in the UK , then a copy of your passport only will be adequate
