Airport Badging Office
The Des Moines Airport Authority is responsible for the safety of all operations at the Des Moines International Airport. Badging approval is an essential process to fulfilling our mission to provide safe and convenient travel and working conditions for all individuals at the Airport.
New companies/individuals requesting security access to the Des Moines International Airport must complete a New Company Security Access Request form, and once approved, must complete an Authorized Signatory Designation Form and receive approval before being provided access.
Contractors must complete a Contractor Access Request for each contractor or sub to a project no later than 7-days prior to a project in order to provide appropriate access for the duration of the project. This form is used for changes to an existing project as well.
The Badge Application Process has several steps. Please follow them carefully; resources can be found at the bottom of this page.
