ASIC - New Applications
In line with Aviation Transport Security and the Aviation Transport Security Regulations, the RFDS requires specific roles to hold and maintain an Aviation Security Identification Card (ASIC). An ASIC identifies a person who needs regular, unescorted access to the secure areas of security-controlled airports that have regular public transport services. The following page will help you navigate the process of obtaining your ASIC.
Please note: ASIC applications can take over 1 month to process therefore, we kindly ask that you attend to this as soon as possible.
