Victoria Police completes security background checks on all service providers that access our facilities and information. This includes all service providers/contractors, external government agency, and non-government personnel.
Contractor security
The Contractor Security team in our Security Information and Privacy Division (SIPD) administer security background checks. They make the determination on an individual's suitability for engagement with Victoria Police.
How to apply for a security background check
To apply for a security background check, you must complete an online contractor/service provider application.
Speak with your Victoria Police Contract Manager, or the Victoria Police employee that requested your services. They will be the point of contact for the Contractor Security team, for all enquiries relating to your application.
They must notify Contractor Security of the proposed services, and request a link to the online 'e-pack' application.
Fingerprint checks
Depending on the services that you will be providing, you may need to undergo a fingerprint check. Contractor Security will advise if this is required.
If so, you must complete the check at your own cost. See our National Police Check fees and charges page to view the current fees and process.
