Port of Gladstone

Queensland

The Port of Gladstone is one of Australia's largest multi commodity ports, exporting coal, LNG from Curtis Island, alumina, aluminium and cement products for central Queensland's industrial belt.

Anyone needing unescorted access to a maritime security zone at Gladstone must hold a valid MSIC, including stevedores, terminal operators, LNG and industrial plant contractors, truck drivers, marine crew and surveyors.

ClientView is an Australian Government authorised MSIC issuing body. Apply online in 10 to 15 minutes, verify your identity at a participating Australia Post outlet in Gladstone, and we lodge every ready application with AusCheck each business day. Our measured median AusCheck clearance was 2 days over the 12 months to June 2026. Start your application or read our measured processing times.

Local requirements

Your MSIC is a national card. An MSIC issued by ClientView is valid at the Port of Gladstone and at every other security regulated port and offshore facility in Australia.

Gladstone's industrial terminals commonly require their own site inductions and safety certifications in addition to your MSIC, particularly around LNG and hazardous materials areas. Those are set by the terminal operators, so confirm current requirements with the operator or your employer before starting work.
