2. Sign an MOU with a Security Training Institute

Every security agency must train its guards professionally.
For this, you must sign a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with a government-approved training institute.

This is mandatory in every state.

3. Prepare All Required Documents

You need to collect and prepare the following documents:

  • Identity & address proof of directors/partners

  • Company registration documents

  • PAN & TAN

  • GST registration

  • PF & ESI registration (if applicable)

  • Training MOU

Having proper documents makes the approval faster.

4. Police Verification of Directors/Owners

All directors, partners, or owners must undergo police verification.
This is an essential step to ensure there is no criminal background.

Police verification must be completed before filing the PSARA application.

5. Submit the PSARA Application to the State Authority

Once verification is done, submit the application with all documents to the controlling authority of your state.

Every state has its own PSARA department.

Submit:

  • Application form

  • Security training agreement

  • Company documents

  • Verification certificates

  • Affidavits

6. Inspection & Review by the Authority

The department reviews everything:

  • Documents

  • Training agreement

  • Business structure

  • Police verification

  • Professional capability

If everything is correct, the licensing authority proceeds with approval.

7. Receive Your PSARA License

After approval, you receive the PSARA License, which is valid for:

  • 5 years (in most states)

  • 1 year (in a few states like Uttarakhand, Chhattisgarh)

With this license, you can legally operate as a private security agency.
