Fees and Charges
The Badging Office accepts the following forms of payment: Credit/Debit cards, Company Checks, Cashier’s Checks and Money Orders. CASH WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.
Fingerprint/Security Threat Assessment Fees
For applicants who require both fingerprints and a security threat assessment to obtain a badge, there is a $30.00 non-refundable fee. This fee is the cost the Airport pays to have the background check conducted, and covers fingerprint processing, enrollment in the RapBack program and the STA fee.
For applicants who only require a security threat assessment, there is a $9.00 non-refundable fee. This is a one-time charge as long as the applicant maintains an active Airport badge.
Companies are invoiced on a monthly basis for all fingerprints and threat assessments conducted for their employees.
Contractor (Construction) Badges
A badge deposit is required on each construction project based on the project cost as shown in the following table. The full deposit amount must be submitted before badges and vehicle ramp permits may be issued. At the completion of the project, a $400 fee for each non-returned badge, $100 fee for each non-returned vehicle ramp permit, and up to $200 for each non-returned key will be deducted from the deposit and the remaining balance refunded. The deposit must be submitted by the General Contractor.
