The SIA License Application Requirements

The SIA license application requirements are as follows:

  • You must be at least 18 years old.
  • You must have the right to live and work in the UK.
  • You must pass a criminal background check.
  • It would help if you had the appropriate, SIA-recognised, licence-linked qualification.
  • You must provide a passport-style photo of yourself.
  • You must pay the application fee.

The application fee for an SIA license varies depending on the type of license you are applying for. The current fees are:

  • Front-line licence: £184
  • Non-front-line licence: £92

Here are some additional things to keep in mind about SIA license application requirements:

  • The Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) conducts the criminal background check. You can apply for a DBS check online or by post.
  • The SIA license-linked qualification course teaches you the skills and knowledge you need to work in the security industry. You can find a list of approved SIA training providers on the SIA website.
  • The passport-style photo must be in color, clear, and in focus. It must be your true likeness and a close-up of your full head and upper shoulders.
