Your MI5 Security Badge: Issuance and Renewal

Every MI5 employee and contractor must display an active security badge when on-site. Badges are issued during onboarding or upon M’s authorisation, and remain valid for one year. Renewals can be requested through the Personnel Security Portal, with collection available at your home office’s security desk. Lost or damaged badges must be reported immediately to Security Operations — replacement badges will only be reissued after verification of identity.
