This page is about the people who provide close protection in Amman: who they are, how they are vetted, and what credentials to verify before they deploy. Every operator in our Amman network is registered with Jordan’s Ministry of Interior, passes vetting, and is assessed for local competence. It covers standard team configuration, the Jordanian-national requirement for armed personnel, and the credential checks a buyer should insist on before engaging any officer.
Our close protection officers in Amman have specific experience supporting VIP and VVIP delegate principals during Arab League meetings, UN regional events, and international investment forums hosted at Abdali conference facilities and major hotel venues. For these assignments, our teams coordinate in advance with Jordanian Gendarmerie and host-country protocol staff, and all movement plans include primary and secondary routes between conference venues and principal accommodation. Trained professionals operating to the PSD standard can reduce risk for corporate executives, diplomatic visitors, and conference delegates conducting essential business in Jordan’s capital. For principals who require dedicated secure ground transport throughout their Amman programme, our security drivers in Amman provide vehicle escort services integrated with CPO team operations from arrival to departure.

Operational detail for Amman
Public Security Directorate Licensing
Private security companies in Jordan operate under licences issued by the Public Security Directorate (PSD) under the Private Security Companies Regulation. All companies on our Amman panel hold valid PSD licences, and individual CPO personnel hold the required personal authorisations.
Regional Stability Awareness
Jordan is considered relatively stable for the region, though its proximity to Syria and Iraq requires CPO teams to maintain awareness of spillover risk and border-area threat developments. FCDO monitoring is standard for all Amman assignments, with itinerary adjustments recommended during periods of elevated regional tension.
Gendarmerie Coordination
For high-profile principal support in Amman, our CPO teams coordinate with the Jordanian Gendarmerie, particularly for movements to the Royal Court, key government ministries, and diplomatic compound areas. Established protocol contacts support access and escort arrangements.
VIP Delegate and Conference Support
Amman is a major regional conference hub hosting Arab League meetings, UN regional events, and international investment forums. Our CPO teams have specific experience supporting VIP and VVIP delegate principals, including coordination with event security teams and host-nation protocol officers.
Business District Coverage
Core operating zones include Abdali (the modern CBD and conference district), Shmeisani (commercial and financial), Jabal Amman (embassies and NGOs), and Sweifieh (retail and hospitality). Our advance officers cover all major hotel properties and conference venues across these areas.
Low-Visibility Standard
For the majority of Amman assignments, a discreet, low-visibility CPO profile operating in unmarked vehicles is appropriate and proportionate to the city's medium risk environment. Principals attending high-profile government or royal events may require an enhanced visible security profile, assessed case by case.
