Badge Form

Airports Authority employees who have access to security controlled areas of the airport must obtain an identification badge as part of the airports compliance with the Transportation Security Administration’s regulations and requirements.  Even though you need to obtain your badge as soon as possible, you may not obtain your badge prior to your start date.  Instructions on how to obtain your badge, once you begin work, are as follows:

  • Download the applicable Badge and ID Application Information, DCA (Reagan National / Corporate Office) or IAD (Dulles International). Complete the form online and print it as a two-sided document.

  • Sign it and obtain a signature from a Signatory Authority (your supervisor can guide you).

  • Print and complete the Fingerprint Application Form from the same page.

  • Bring both forms, along with two forms of identification, to the Fingerprinting office and complete applicable training.

  • Once you have completed training, proceed to the Pass and ID office and present your documents to the agent. You will have your picture taken and be issued a badge.
