FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

For standard corporate visits to Copenhagen, a vetted security driver is the appropriate baseline. A dedicated CPO is warranted for principals with government, diplomatic, or defence-sector roles representing documented intelligence targets, for HNWI clients with elevated personal risk indicators, and for principals who have received credible threat information. The required protection level is determined by a pre-visit threat assessment.

CPOs in Denmark are licensed under Security Guard Act (Vagtvirksomhedsloven) by Danish Police (Rigspolitiet) and Danish Security and Intelligence Service (PET). Our Copenhagen partners hold all current credentials. Licence documentation is provided to the client before deployment begins. Individual operators hold the personal protection qualification required under Denmark law.

Armed close protection is available in Denmark through operators holding the appropriate Denmark armed security authorisation. The majority of Copenhagen corporate and diplomatic assignments are conducted unarmed, reflecting the low ambient risk. Armed capability is deployed where the pre-deployment threat assessment identifies a specific requirement.

The CPO positions inside Copenhagen Airport Kastrup (CPH) arrivals before the principal clears baggage claim. A pre-departure vehicle check is conducted. The CPH-to-city transfer takes 15 to 25 minutes. For principals with elevated threat profiles, counter-surveillance protocol is applied from the arrivals hall through the transfer to the principal’s hotel.
