My SIA security licence can be renewed online?

Four months before your existing licence expires, you can renew your SIA security licence online. SIA licences must unfortunately be renewed after three years from the date of issuance because they do not renew automatically.

Detailed Instructions For Applying For Your License
If your current employer declines to renew your SIA licence on your behalf, you will need to renew the licence on your own behalf.

It is usually advised that you submit your SIA security licence renewal application as soon as possible.

Early application lowers the possibility of a delay that could interfere with your capacity to work. Keep in mind that you cannot lawfully work in the security field without a current SIA security licence.

You should expect to pay this fee every three years to renew your SIA security licence because a licence renewal costs the same as a new application (£190).

Please be aware that unless you are renewing a Door Supervisor License, no further training or certification is needed for a licence renewal.

Renewal of a SIA security licence is an easy process.
The procedure listed below should be used to renew a current SIA security licence.

Step 1

Make a personal online account on the SIA website if you haven’t already. You’ll require the SIA login.

Step 2

Once created, log in to your online account using your SIA login to submit your renewal application. You will be required to provide certain personal information, such as the last five years’ worth of addresses. What to do after submitting your application will be communicated to you.

Step 3

On the screen of the SIA licence renewal application, follow the instructions. After finishing, you will need to pay for your renewal.

You might need to send documents to SIA. If any documentation is necessary as part of your application, SIA will let you know.

The SIA will process your security licence renewal once the renewal application is finished. It will take about 14 days to complete this.

How to get a job in the security industry
You must obtain a SIA Licence if you want to work in the security industry, whether it be as a Door Supervisor, Security Guard, or CCTV Operative.

You must pass a course in order to get a SIA Licence. You will be able to apply for an SIA Licence and find employment in the security industry once you have finished the course.
