SIA Registration

Process By Shared Services,

Licensing Department.

Registering on the SIA website is a lot more straightforward than you might think. If

you follow the steps in this presentation you can’t go wrong!

The first step is to go to

www.sia.homeoffice.gov.uk and

it will take you to the webpage

you see on the right >

Click the button circled red.

Once you get to this page

click on the “Register/Login”

button.

Register for a “Personal

Account” NOT a business

account, as this could

complicate things when we

come to renew your license.

At this stage, you must enter

your personal details. The

sections with a red star are

mandatory.

Please keep a note of the email

address you use to register

with, as you will need to access

your emails to complete the

registration process.

Also keep a note of the

password you use. The

passwords require at least one

capital letter, one number and

one special character (eg -

!ӣ$%^&*)

Once you have entered

your details you will see

this page >

And you will receive an

email asking you to verify

your account.

This is a hotmail account I set up

for the purposes of this

presentation.

The email you will receive will

look like this >

Click on the blue link...

...which will take you to this

page.

Click “Go to login” and refer to

the notes you made earlier of

your username and password.

Enter your username and

password in the boxes

provided and click “Log in”

You will then be asked to

match your details. This page

is basically to let the SIA know

if there have been any

changes in your circumstances

since your last license

renewal.

If for some reason your new

details are not accepted (eg

passport number) try entering

your old details and we will

amend it when we come to

renew your license.

This green message will

appear when you have

successfully matched your

details.

Scroll down to the bottom and

click “Finish Registration”.

You will then be taken to this

page where it will be

tempting to click “Start a new

Application”.

DO NOT CLICK THIS!

If you click this button it will

slow things down and

complicate the matter as it

will be your responsibility to

contact the SIA and get the

application you started

cancelled.

When you have successfully

registered and matched your

details, compose an email to

the licensing team

(ssuklicensingsharedservices

@uk.g4s.com)

In the subject heading simply

put your name, your payroll

number and the word

“REGISTERED” and send it to

us.

Within 3 working days you

will then receive an email

from the licensing team

saying you have been sent a

link.

Once you receive this, log

back into your SIA account

and follow the steps given to

you in the email.

When you login to your SIA

account you should have a

notification at the top left of

your screen saying “1 unread

message”. Click on either this

or “My Messages” which is just

below.

When you have clicked on

your messages, click “View”

on the message that says

“Action required: You have

been sent a request to link with

a business”

You will receive an email from

the SIA stating that a business

(G4S) is trying to link with you.

You won’t need to do anything

with the email it is simply a

notification.

When you have clicked

view, you will see this page

>

Now click “Accept”.

You will see the terms and

conditions.

Then scroll down...

Tick the box next to “I

have read and understood

the permissions that I am

granting to the business”

And click on “Accept”.

You have now completed

your registration!

As it says in red on the

page, DO NOT click on

“Start a New Application”

Once you have accepted

the link, you won’t need

to go back onto your SIA

portal again, unless you

wish to check the

progress of your

application.

The last step is just to let us

know you have linked.

Simply type out an email to

ssuklicensingsharedservice

s@uk.g4s.com with your

name, your payroll number

and the word “LINKED”.

And there you have it. You are now registered and linked to G4S on your SIA portal.

When you have completed these steps, and provided all your ID documents (as stated in your registration

pack) we can then make your license renewal application.

Thank you for viewing this presentation. If you have further questions regarding your license renewal you

should speak to your manager first.
