Westminster Security has extensive experience and a proven team of multilingual French bodyguards. Westminster Security provides personal protection to clients throughout France, including Reims, Paris, Lyon, Cannes, Saint Tropez and Monaco.
Our clients extend from London-based business executives to celebrities travelling for work or leisure. Also, there is an increasing demand for our services from overseas holidaymakers. Tourists are concerned about the ongoing terror threat and attacks. Both residents and travellers find themselves seeking a more robust personal security solution.
As a company, our established presence in Paris is crucial as a basis for our European operations. It allows us to serve our existing clients better and to build on our exclusive client-base. Our teams are already in-situ, ready to react and assist with all our client’s security concerns.
The law heavily regulates the French security industry. CNAPS (Conseil National des Activités Privées de Sécurité) is the French equivalent of the UK SIA model. Companies need authorisation from the Ministry of Interior and must use trained and licenced personnel.
Of course, there are always charlatans out there. Some companies operate under the radar and with little respect for the rules and law. Many UK-based companies are claiming to entitlement under SIA 3-month rule. You should note that this is not a proper licence or authority. Also, this agreement is likely to be revoked after Brexit. Companies who use this loophole are likely to be operating illegally in a few months (if they aren’t breaking the law already).
Unlike many of our competitors, Westminster Security bodyguard services have been thorough. We have undergone rigorous localised scrutiny. We have earned proper authorisation and licensing which allows us to operate legally under French government guidance. We are the only London-based security company to hold CNAPS Authorisation for the ‘Protection physique des personnes’ (physical protection of people) in France.
Westminster Security supplies security and bodyguard services in Paris and throughout France under strict regulations. Our highly sought-after company CNAPS licence allows us to provide close protection (bodyguards), security chauffeurs, residential security, and VIP event security. We only employ highly-trained, former military, and police close protection specialists. These have vast experience in providing an exemplary discreet service.
All our bodyguards in France are CNAPS registered and multilingual. We can provide both male and female bodyguards in Paris and elsewhere in France for your personal protection.
