How long does a California Guard Card remain valid?

A California Guard Card is valid for two years from the date it is issued by BSIS.

To keep your Guard Card active, you'll need to:

  • Renew it every two years before it expires.
  • Complete any continuing education or training required by BSIS.
  • Keep your contact information current with BSIS.

Renewing on time helps you avoid interruptions to your employment and ensures you remain eligible to work as a licensed security professional.
