Aviation Security Identification Card (ASIC)
An Aviation Security Identification Card, known as an ASIC, is an identification card which is used to identify a person who has been the subject of a background check. An ASIC is required to obtain unescorted access to the secure areas of security-controlled airports that have Regular Public Transport services. ASICs are valid for up to two years.
The ASIC scheme is a layer of security that ensures that only people who have been background checked to a certain level are permitted to be in the secure areas of airports. The ASIC scheme aims to reduce the risk of unlawful interference with aviation, not just terrorism.

Visitor Passes
If you need temporary access to secure areas of Mount Isa Airport and don’t hold a valid Aviation Security Identification Card (ASIC), you can apply for a Visitor Identification Card (VIC).
- A VIC can only be issued if you haven’t been refused an ASIC and your current one isn’t suspended or cancelled.
- VICs are limited to 28 days in a 12-month period (unless you’ve lodged an ASIC application and provide proof of lodgement).
- A standard Visitor Pass is valid for up to 3 days, expiring at midnight on the final day of issue.
- You must carry valid photo ID at all times while holding a Visitor Pass.
