Authority to use airside (AUA permits) AIRDAT Onboard
All vehicles and equipment requiring unescorted access airside must have a valid AUA permit, affixed to the vehicle, be easily visible and operated by a driver who holds a valid ADA permit.
Applicants are required to complete an Authority to Use Airside Application via AIRDAT Onboard before they can start applying for AUA permits. As part of this application, all companies will need to provide an overview of their services, supporting documentation that demonstrates a genuine business need to operate airside (i.e. proof of engagement) , proof of an appropriate insurance document or Certificate of Currency that specifies coverage of operating vehicles airside on SYD, and sign a supplied indemnity and release document.
