What is a Maritime Security Identification Card (MSIC)?

An MSIC is a nationally consistent identification card that states the holder has undergone a background check and is cleared to work unescorted or unmonitored in a maritime security zone. MSICs are valid for up to 4 years, with a background check required every 2 years.

Who needs an MSIC?

You will need to apply for an MSIC if your occupation or business interests require, or will require you to:

  • access a maritime security zone unmonitored at least once each year or;
  • have a background check, but do not require you to access maritime security zones.

Can I apply for an MSIC if I am looking for work?

You are now able to apply for an MSIC before you get a job. If you are currently looking for work, you can apply for a 'Job Ready' MSIC Application.
