| DFW Airport’s Access Control Office (ACO) provides its business partners and their employees with badging, fingerprinting, AOA permit, AOA device and key issuance services that may be necessary for an employee to work at the Airport. Note: The ACO does not offer key issuance services for Terminal D.
The process to request a new badge, renew a badge, delete a badge, and/or request an AOA vehicle permit may be initiated through this web-site page. These web-pages contain the necessary forms, information, office hours and directions to assist applicants with the process. By reviewing the information and completing the necessary forms before arriving at the ACO, DFW hopes to make the process proceed more smoothly and quickly.
DFW Airport issues two (2) main types of badges; 1) the Security Identification Display Area (SIDA) badge, which provides unescorted access to the secured areas of the Airport, including the Air Operations Area (AOA), commonly called the ramp; and 2) the Non-SIDA badge, which authorizes an employee through the screening process at the security checkpoints, but does not authorize unescorted access to the SIDA or the AOA. Some badges may require U.S. Customs clearance based upon the employee’s job responsibilities. This clearance may be added to either type of badge. In addition, certain Airport employees or contractors may apply for badges that provide access to various DFW facilities that do not require SIDA or Non-SIDA badges.
