With this in mind, as of 1st August 2018 applicants will incur a €10 charge per application if the applicant submits a flawed or incomplete form. Also, if the applicant does not complete the online element of the Garda Vetting process within the 30 day limit and the application has to be resubmitted, the €10 fee will be incurred.
