Security company licensing in New Jersey

New Jersey State Police, Private Detective Unit licenses security companies here, but we do not yet carry its roster, so we cannot tell you who is on it.

The State Police publish a monthly 'Active Agencies' spreadsheet listing 639 licensed security agencies with licence number, status, address, phone and expiry. The filename carries its date and the visible link on the page can lag the newest file by months, so the current one has to be found by scanning the page rather than followed.

Until then, verify a company with the regulator directly, and treat any license number a company gives you as a claim we have not checked.

There is a second license, and in New Jersey it may be the only one that exists: the guard’s own.
