Ladies and Gentlemen:
We have acted as counsel to Intelligent Bio Solutions Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Company”), in connection with the Registration Statement on Form S-3, Registration No. 333-286489 (as amended, the “Registration Statement”), filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”). The Registration Statement, which was declared effective on September 10, 2025, relates to the issuance and sale from time to time, pursuant to Rule 415 of the rules and regulations promulgated under the Securities Act, of, among other securities, shares of the Company’s common stock, par value $0.01 per share (the “Common Stock”). We have also acted as counsel to the Company in connection with the issuance, offer and sale from time to time of up to an aggregate of $7,703,258 of Common Stock (the “Shares”), pursuant to the At The Market Offering Agreement, dated September 18, 2024, by and between the Company and Ladenburg Thalmann & Co. Inc., as sales agent (the “ATM Agreement”).
This opinion letter is being delivered in accordance with the requirements of Item 601(b)(5) of Regulations S-K under the Securities Act.
In connection with our opinion, we have examined the Registration Statement, including the exhibits thereto, the ATM Agreement, and such other documents, corporate records and instruments, and have examined such laws and regulations, as we have deemed necessary for the purposes of this opinion. In making our examination, we have assumed the genuineness of all signatures, the authenticity of all documents submitted to us as originals, the conformity with the originals of all documents submitted to us as copies and the legal capacity of all natural persons. As to matters of fact material to our opinions in this letter, we have relied on certificates and statements from officers and other employees of the Company, public officials and other appropriate persons.
For purposes of the opinion set forth below, we have assumed that the Shares are issued for a price per share equal to or greater than the minimum price authorized by the Company’s board of directors prior to the date hereof, and that in the future the Company does not issue shares of Common Stock, or reduce the total number of shares of Common Stock that the Company is authorized to issue under its certificate of incorporation, such that the number of authorized but unissued shares of Common Stock under the Company’s certificate of incorporation is less than the number of unissued Shares that may be issued for such minimum price.

Based on the foregoing and subject to the qualifications set forth below, we are of the opinion that the Shares have been duly authorized and reserved for issuance and, when issued by the Company and delivered by the Company against payment therefor as contemplated by the ATM Agreement and a Sales Notice or Terms Agreement (each as defined in the ATM Agreement), will be legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
The foregoing opinions are limited to Delaware General Corporation Law and we express no opinion as to the laws of any other jurisdiction.
The opinions expressed in this opinion letter are as of the date of this opinion letter only and as to laws covered hereby only as they are in effect on that date, and we assume no obligation to update or supplement such opinion to reflect any facts or circumstances that may come to our attention after that date or any changes in law that may occur or become effective after that date.

We hereby consent to the filing of this opinion as Exhibit 5.1 to the Current Report on Form 8-K of the Company filed March 23, 2026, and to the reference to us under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus supplement with respect to the Shares and under the caption “Legal Matters” in the prospectus contained in the Registration Statement. In giving this consent, we do not thereby admit that we are within the category of persons whose consent is required under Section 7 of the Securities Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder.

| Employee: | |
|---|---|

| Number of Shares Subject to Award: | |
| Date of End of Restriction Period: | Number of Award Shares Vesting |
| --- | --- |
| The<br> 48-month anniversary of the Grant Date | [Number<br> of Shares Vesting] |
This Agreement, effective as of the Grant Date set forth above, is between Intelligent Bio Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”), and the Employee. The parties hereto agree as follows:
The Plan (including any applicable sub-plans incorporated thereunder) provides a complete description of the terms and conditions governing the Award. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the Plan’s terms shall govern. All capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan, unless specifically set forth otherwise herein. A copy of the Plan is attached hereto and the terms of the Plan are hereby incorporated by reference.
1. Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the provisions set forth herein and the terms and conditions of the Plan, and in consideration of the agreements of the Employee herein provided, the Company hereby grants to the Employee the number of Shares set forth above. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the par value of the Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed fully paid and satisfied by the Employee’s past services rendered to the Company prior to the date of this Agreement.
2. Acceptance by Employee. The receipt of the Award is conditioned upon the acceptance of this Agreement by the Employee.
3. Shares. The Company may issue stock certificates or evidence the Employee’s interest by using a restricted book entry account with the Company’s transfer agent. Physical possession or custody of any stock certificates that are issued shall be retained by the Company until such time as the restrictions lapse in accordance with Sections 5 through 7 below.
4. Limitations on Transfer.
(a) None of the Shares subject to the Award (“Award Shares”) shall be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred, voluntarily or involuntarily, by the Employee (or his estate or personal representative, as the case may be), until such restrictions lapse in accordance with Sections 5 through 7 below.
(b) In addition to restrictions set forth in Section 4(a), any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Shares shall be subject to compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy. The Policy requires that any transaction in Company Common Stock receive pre-clearance approval by the Company’s designated Compliance Officer.
(c) To the extent applicable to the Employee, the Award Shares may also remain subject to additional transfer restrictions set forth in the Plan beyond the date that the restrictions in Section 4(a) lapse.
5. Lapse of Restrictions. The restrictions set forth in Section 4(a) above shall lapse with respect to a number of the Award Shares on the last day of the applicable Restriction Period as set forth above, subject to the Employee remaining in employment or service of the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate thereof through the applicable date.
6. Death or Disability. To the extent the restrictions set forth in Section 4(a) above have not lapsed in accordance with Section 5 above, in the event that the Employee’s employment or service with the Company and all subsidiaries and affiliates terminates due to the Employee’s death or Disability, such restrictions shall lapse with respect to a number of Award Shares determined by multiplying the number of Award Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months that have elapsed from the Grant Date to the termination of employment and the denominator of which is the number of full months in the Restriction Period. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, Award Shares with respect to which restrictions do not lapse on the Employee’s death or Disability shall be forfeited to the Company automatically for no consideration.
7. Retirement. To the extent the restrictions set forth in Section 4(a) above have not lapsed in accordance with Section 5 above, in the event that (i) the Employee voluntarily retires from employment and service with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates (the date of such retirement the “Retirement Date”), (ii) the Employee’s age plus full years of service with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates as of the Retirement Date is equal to 70 or more, and (iii) the Company has not terminated the Employee’s employment for Cause and no such reason to terminate for Cause exists as of the Retirement Date, the restrictions shall lapse with respect to 100% of the unvested Award Shares on the Retirement Date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean, any of the following with respect to the Employee: (i) a conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; (ii) an act of fraud, embezzlement, or theft in connection with the Employee’s duties in the course of their employment or service with the Company; (iii) repeated failure to perform assigned duties in a manner consistent with the Company’s expectations after receiving written notice of such failure and a reasonable opportunity to cure such failure; or (iv) any material violation of Company policies which is detrimental to the Company.
8. Forfeiture. Except as provided in Section 6 and 7 and unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Award Shares shall be automatically forfeited to the Company for no consideration upon the Employee’s termination of employment with the Company and all subsidiaries and affiliates for any reason other than the Employee’s death or Disability (as described in Section 6 above) or retirement (as described in Section 7 above) that occurs prior to the date the restrictions lapse as provided in Section 5 above. The foregoing provisions of this Section 8 shall be subject to the provisions of any written employment or severance agreement that has been or may be executed by the Employee and the Company, and the provisions in such employment or severance agreement concerning the lapse of restrictions of an Award shall supersede any inconsistent or contrary provision of this Section 8.
9. Rights as Stockholder. As the holder of the Award Shares, the Employee is entitled to all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to any of the Award Shares, when issued, including, but not limited to, the right to receive dividends declared and payable since the Grant Date; provided, however, that such dividends shall be accumulated and held by the Company until the restrictions with respect to the underlying Award Shares lapse as described in Section 5, or if earlier, as described in Section 6 or Section 7, at which time such accumulated dividends shall be paid to the Employee in cash. Any accumulated or unpaid dividends relating to Award Shares that are forfeited shall also be forfeited.
10. Tax Obligations.

12. Committee Determinations. The Committee shall have full discretionary authority to make all determinations concerning the rights to benefits under the Plan and this Agreement. All determinations and interpretations made by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive on all parties, including the Company, its stockholders, the Employee, and the Employee’s beneficiaries and estate.
13. Defined Terms. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not otherwise defined shall be as defined in the Plan.
14. Legend. The Company may, in its discretion, place a legend or legends on any electronic shares or certificates representing Award Shares issued to the Employee that the Company believes is required to comply with any law or regulation.
15. Choice of Law. To the extent not superseded by federal law, the laws of the state of Delaware (without regard to the conflicts laws of Delaware) shall control in all matters relating to this Agreement.
16. Counterparts.

17. Recoupment. Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Company shall have the right to seek recoupment of all or any portion of the Award (including by forfeiture of any outstanding Award Shares or by the Employee’s remittance to the Company of Award Shares pursuant to which the restrictions previously lapsed or of a cash payment equal to Award Shares pursuant to which the restrictions previously lapsed) in accordance with and pursuant to any Company recoupment policy in effect from time to time.

Without limitation to the Agreement, the Employee agrees that he or she is responsible for all tax liabilities with respect to the Award or relating to the Award or the Shares underlying thereof and hereby covenant to pay all such tax liabilities, as and when requested by the Company or by a Company subsidiary or by HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority). The Employee also agrees to indemnify and keep indemnified the Company and its subsidiaries against any tax liability they are required to pay or withhold or have paid or will pay to HMRC (or any other tax authority or any other relevant authority) on the Employee’s behalf.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Employee is a director or executive officer (within the meaning of Section 13(k) of the Exchange Act), the Employee understands that he or she may not be able to indemnify the Company for the amount of any withholding obligation for tax liability not collected from or paid by the Employee, in case the indemnification could be considered to be a loan. In this case, taxes not collected or paid may constitute a benefit to the Employee on which additional income tax and NICs may be payable. The Employee understands that the Employee will be responsible for reporting and paying any income tax due on this additional benefit directly to HMRC under the self-assessment regime and for paying to the Company and/or applicable Company subsidiary (as appropriate) the amount of any employee NICs due on this additional benefit, which may also be obtained from the Employee by any of the means referred to the Agreement and the Plan.

| Employee: |

This Agreement, effective as of the Grant Date set forth above, is between Intelligent Bio Solutions, Inc. (the “Company”), and the Employee. The parties hereto agree as follows:
The Plan provides a complete description of the terms and conditions governing the Award. If there is any inconsistency between the terms of this Agreement and the terms of the Plan, the Plan’s terms shall govern. All capitalized terms shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Plan, unless specifically set forth otherwise herein. A copy of the Plan is attached hereto and the terms of the Plan are hereby incorporated by reference.
Grant of Restricted Stock. Subject to the provisions set forth herein and the terms and conditions of the Plan, and in consideration of the agreements of the Employee herein provided, the Company hereby grants to the Employee the number of Shares set forth above. The Employee acknowledges and agrees that the par value of the Shares issuable pursuant to this Agreement shall be deemed fully paid and satisfied by the Employee’s past services rendered to the Company prior to the date of this Agreement.
Acceptance by Employee. The receipt of the Award is conditioned upon the acceptance of this Agreement by the Employee.
Shares. The Company may issue stock certificates or evidence the Employee’s interest by using a restricted book entry account with the Company’s transfer agent. Physical possession or custody of any stock certificates that are issued shall be retained by the Company until such time as the restrictions lapse in accordance with Sections 5 through 7 below.
Limitations on Transfer.
(a) None of the Shares subject to the Award (“Award Shares”) shall be sold, assigned, pledged or otherwise transferred, voluntarily or involuntarily, by the Employee (or his estate or personal representative, as the case may be), until such restrictions lapse in accordance with Sections 5 through 7 below.
(b) In addition to restrictions set forth in Section 4(a), any sale, transfer or other disposition of the Shares shall be subject to compliance with the Company’s Insider Trading Policy. The Policy requires that any transaction in Company Common Stock receive pre-clearance approval by the Company’s designated Compliance Officer.
Lapse of Restrictions. The restrictions set forth in Section 4(a) above shall lapse with respect to the Award Shares at the time the performance and service vesting conditions set forth in attached Exhibit A are satisfied, subject to the Employee remaining in employment or service of the Company or a subsidiary or affiliate thereof through the applicable date.
Death or Disability. To the extent the restrictions set forth in Section 4(a) above have not lapsed in accordance with Section 5 above, in the event that the Employee’s employment or service with the Company and all subsidiaries and affiliates terminates due to the Employee’s death or Disability, such restrictions shall lapse with respect to a number of Award Shares determined by multiplying the number of Award Shares by a fraction, the numerator of which is the number of full months that have elapsed from the Grant Date to the termination of employment and the denominator of which is the number of full months in the Restriction Period. Except as otherwise determined by the Committee, Award Shares with respect to which restrictions do not lapse on the Employee’s death or disability shall be forfeited to the Company automatically for no consideration.
Retirement. To the extent the restrictions set forth in Section 4(a) above have not lapsed in accordance with Section 5 above, in the event that (i) the Employee voluntarily retires from employment and service with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates (the date of such retirement the “Retirement Date”), (ii) the Employee’s age plus full years of service with the Company and its subsidiaries and affiliates as of the Retirement Date is equal to 70 or more, and (iii) the Company has not terminated the Employee’s employment for Cause and no such reason to terminate for Cause exists as of the Retirement Date, the restrictions shall lapse with respect to 100% of the unvested Award Shares on the Retirement Date. For purposes of this Agreement, “Cause” shall mean, any of the following with respect to the Employee: (i) a conviction of, or plea of guilty or nolo contendere to, a felony or a crime involving moral turpitude; (ii) an act of fraud, embezzlement, or theft in connection with the Employee’s duties in the course of their employment or service with the Company; (iii) repeated failure to perform assigned duties in a manner consistent with the Company’s expectations after receiving written notice of such failure and a reasonable opportunity to cure such failure; or (iv) any material violation of Company policies which is detrimental to the Company.
Forfeiture. Except as provided in Sections 6 and 7 and unless otherwise determined by the Committee, the Award Shares shall be automatically forfeited to the Company for no consideration upon the Employee’s termination of employment with the Company and all subsidiaries and affiliates for any reason other than the Employee’s death or Disability (as described in Section 6 above) or retirement (as described in Section 7 above) that occurs prior to the date the restrictions lapse as provided in Section 5 above. Furthermore, to the extent that any performance conditions set forth in Exhibit A are not satisfied prior to the tenth anniversary of the Grant Date, the applicable Award Shares with respect to the performance conditions that have not been satisfied shall be forfeited for no consideration. The foregoing provisions of this Section 8 shall be subject to the provisions of any written employment or severance agreement that has been or may be executed by the Employee and the Company, and the provisions in such employment or severance agreement concerning the lapse of restrictions of an Award shall supersede any inconsistent or contrary provision of this Section 8.
Rights as Stockholder. As the holder of the Award Shares, the Employee is entitled to all of the rights of a stockholder of the Company with respect to any of the Award Shares, when issued, including, but not limited to, the right to receive dividends declared and payable since the Grant Date; provided, however, that such dividends shall be accumulated and held by the Company (without interest) until the restrictions with respect to the underlying Award Shares lapse as described in Section 5, or if earlier, as described in Section 6 or Section 7, at which time such accumulated dividends shall be paid to the Employee in cash. Any accumulated or unpaid dividends relating to Award Shares that are forfeited shall also be forfeited.
Tax Obligations. To the extent not paid by the Company, the Employee shall be responsible for all tax obligations arising in connection with his Award and has been advised to consult a tax or financial advisor with respect to such obligations. The Company has the authority to make all applicable tax withholdings and deductions necessary to satisfy applicable law as determined in the Company’s sole discretion. THE COMPANY MAKES NO WARRANTIES OR REPRESENTATIONS WHATSOEVER TO THE EMPLOYEE REGARDING THE TAX CONSEQUENCES OF THE GRANT OF THE AWARD SHARES SUBJECT TO THIS AGREEMENT.
Section 83(b) Election. It shall not be a condition subsequent to the grant of the Award Shares under this Agreement that the Employee make and file (no later than thirty (30) days from the Grant Date) with the Internal Revenue Service an election under Section 83(b) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) in respect of the Award Grant granted pursuant to this Agreement. If the Employee makes and files such election, the Employee shall provide a copy of the election to the Company within five (5) days following its filing with the Internal Revenue Service. A form of election pursuant to Section 83(b) of the Code is provided, for informational purposes only, as Exhibit B.
No Guarantee of Employment. Nothing in this Agreement shall confer on the Employee any right to be or to continue in the employ of the Company or shall interfere in any way with the right of the Company to terminate the employment of the Employee at any time for any reason or no reason.
Committee Determinations. The Committee shall have full discretionary authority to make all determinations concerning the rights to benefits under the Plan and this Agreement. All determinations and interpretations made by the Committee shall be final, binding and conclusive on all parties, including the Company, its stockholders, the Employee, and the Employee’s beneficiaries and estate.

This Agreement may be executed electronically and delivered by electronic means, including via electronic mail or any other electronic means complying with the U.S. federal ESIGN Act of 2000, as amended (e.g., www.DocuSign.com) or by any other reasonable transmission method and any copy of this Agreement so executed or delivered, in one or more counterparts, and by the different parties in separate counterparts, shall be deemed to be an original but all of which taken together shall constitute one and the same instrument, and shall be deemed to have been duly and validly delivered and to be valid and effective for all purposes.
