GeM Registration for Security Services Providers

Selling manned guarding, surveillance, and access control services to government buyers? GeM registration for the security services category follows the same core onboarding process every seller goes through, with a few category-specific details worth getting right from the start.

Getting Onboarded

GeM registration is open to proprietorships, partnerships, private limited companies and LLPs. You'll need PAN and address proof of the entity, a GST registration certificate, Udyam (MSME) registration for EMD exemption, bank account details, and a Digital Signature Certificate for your authorised signatory. If you're reselling rather than manufacturing security services products, you'll also need an OEM authorization letter from the brand.

What Makes This Category Different

Security service listings generally need to reflect compliance with applicable state private security agency licensing requirements, alongside standard GeM documentation — buyers in this category scrutinize compliance credentials closely.

Documents to Prepare

• PAN and address proof of the entity
• GST registration certificate
• Udyam (MSME) registration, for EMD exemption
• Bank account details and a cancelled cheque
• Authorization letter from the brand/OEM, if reselling
• Digital Signature Certificate of the authorised signatory
