What is Security Check (SC) Clearance?

Security Check (SC) is the most widely used level of security clearance in the UK defence and government sectors. It allows individuals to access SECRET assets and occasional access to TOP SECRET assets. SC clearance is essential for many roles within the Ministry of Defence (MoD), defence contractors, and intelligence agencies. It sits above BPSS and below DV in the vetting hierarchy.

Frequently Asked Questions

How long does SC clearance take?

On average, SC clearance takes between 1 to 3 months to process, though this can vary depending on the complexity of the applicant's background and the current workload of the vetting agency (UKSV).

Can I apply for SC clearance myself?

No, you cannot apply for SC clearance independently. You must be sponsored by an employer who holds a List X status or by a government department. They will initiate the vetting process on your behalf once you have been offered a role that requires it.

How long does SC clearance last?

SC clearance typically lasts for 5 years for contractors and up to 10 years for permanent government employees, provided there is a continued business need. It will lapse if you leave the sponsored role for 12 months.
