:*Forces War Records, a pay website, includes a transcribed database [https://www.forces-war-records.co.uk/collections/179/wwi-prisoner-of-war-records/ WWI Prisoner of War Records] based on ICRC records of British soldiers. However, there is no information about the number of transcribed records available.

*[https://www.icrc.org/eng/resources/icrc-archives/ ICRC Archives] in Geneva has records for the [[Second World War]]. There is a quarterly "quota" for enquires, due to staff numbers but if the quota has been exceeded, you can apply at the beginning of the next quarter. Details are linked from the page [https://www.icrc.org/en/document/researching-victims-conflict Researching victims of conflict]. It appears that the demand for this service is very great, and elsewhere it was stated that as the quota may be filled within two hours of opening, it was suggested to check from 7am UK time on the day the quota opens.
