FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

For standard corporate visits to Dublin, 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 Ireland are licensed under Private Security Services Act 2004 (as amended) by Private Security Authority (PSA). Our Dublin partners hold all current credentials. Licence documentation is provided to the client before deployment begins. Individual operators hold the personal protection qualification required under Ireland law.

Armed close protection is available in Ireland through operators holding the appropriate Ireland armed security authorisation. The majority of Dublin 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 Dublin Airport (DUB) arrivals before the principal clears baggage claim. A pre-departure vehicle check is conducted. The DUB-to-city transfer takes 20 to 40 minutes. For principals with elevated threat profiles, counter-surveillance protocol is applied from the arrivals hall through the transfer to the principal’s hotel.
