Displaying an MSIC

Unless exempted under a Notice by the Secretary of the Department, an MSIC must always be properly displayed when the holder is in a maritime security zone. An MSIC is properly displayed if it is attached to a person's outer clothing and:

  • at or above waist height; or 
  • at the front or side of your body or on a band on your upper arm; and
  • with the whole front of the MSIC clearly visible.

Remember:

  • Only YOU can use your MSIC, it is not transferable, DO NOT give or loan it to anyone else.
  • Your MSIC must be kept in a safe and secure location whilst not in use.
  • It is an offence if you contravene the regulations on how and where an MSIC must be worn.

If someone has an invalid MSIC, incorrectly displays or misuses an MSIC, then they may be fined or prosecuted.
