What is an ASIC?
An Aviation Security Identification Card (ASIC) is used to identify a person who has been the subject of a background check. An ASIC is required to obtain unescorted access to the secure areas (including the airside) of security controlled airports that have regular public transport (RPT) services. ASICs are valid for up to two years.
Who needs an ASIC?
Applicants should check with their supervisor or airport operator to see if they need to hold and display an ASIC. A person has an operational need to hold an ASIC if they have a requirement for frequent access to all or part of a secure area of an airport where persons are required to display an ASIC, and for the operation of the airport or an aircraft. A person involved in checking in passengers or baggage handling will need an ASIC regardless of where they work.
Visitors who need to access the airside area or any landside security zone of the airport need to wear a Visitor Identification Card (VIC) and they must be supervised by a person displaying a valid ASIC until they leave that area or zone.
Applicants must be cleared before an ASIC can be issued. This involves a criminal records check, a security assessment by ASIO and an immigration check. We submit applicant details to AusCheck for this to occur, and pay the relevant fee.
