your SIA licence expires in 2026, leaving the renewal too late could take you off shift. A pending application does not extend an expired badge. Once the printed expiry date passes, you must stop all licensable work until the SIA grants the new licence.<\/p>\r\n<p>Door Supervisors and Security Guards now need the correct refresher qualification, valid first-aid evidence and current ACT Awareness and ACT Security certificates. This SIA licence renewal checklist explains when to start, which course to book, what evidence to prepare, how the \u00a3204 application works and what the latest SIA qualification review may change

Supervisors and Security Guards need refresher training at each renewal. Indicative in-person time is 1.5-2.5 days for DS and 0.5-1 day for SG. Close Protection refresher training has applied since 1 April 2026 and takes about 2.5-4.5 days. CCTV, key holding and cash-and-valuables-in-transit renewals have no current refresher requirement.

the <a href=\"https:\/\/training4employment.co.uk\/courses\/security-guard-refresher\">Security Guard Refresher course<\/a> if you hold a Security Guard licence and want the same licence again. The recognised route is the Level 2 Security Officer Refresher qualification. Indicative face-to-face time is about half a day to one day. A Door Supervisor can use the permitted route to apply for a Security Guard licence, but that choice narrows the work available. Think about the roles you want before changing to the more limited badge.<\/p>\r\n<p>Note: If your licence or training history is unclear, ask the provider to check it before you pay. CCTV, key holding and cash-and-valuables-in-transit licences do not have a current refresher requirement, so their renewal route is different.<\/p>\r\n\r\n[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_heading

which awarding organisation will issue the award, what ID the centre needs and when results are reported. This matters in 2026 because GOV.UK states that BIIAB could not take on new Door Supervisor or Security Guard learners on or after 2 July 2026.

present 2026 renewal rules still apply. The<a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/news\/sia-launches-major-review-of-security-licence-qualifications\"> major SIA review of security licence qualifications<\/a> is a wider reset of course content, tests and training controls. It covers searches, physical intervention, counter-terror and spiking awareness, English, first aid, new security technology, trainer standards and exam security.<\/p>\r\n<p>New course and test rules are planned for Spring 2027. That date is a programme target; it does not replace the DS Refresher or SG Refresher rules in force now. Final specifications and transition guidance will decide how learners near the change are treated. The wider <a href=\"https:\/\/www.gov.uk\/government\/publications\/sia-strategic-plan-2026-to-2029\/sia-strategic-plan-2026-to-2029\">SIA Strategic Plan 2026-2029<\/a> also points towards more focus on skills, supervision and service quality. A badge matters, but employers still need to give site induction, role training, support and suitable supervision.<\/p>\r\n<p>Training 4 Employment (T4E) lists the full Door Supervisor, DS Refresher and SG Refresher routes. Check entry evidence, dates, course time, price, awarding organisation and result reporting on the <a href=\"https:\/\/training4employment.co.uk\/\">Training 4 Employment website<\/a>.
