Regulatory Framework in China
Private security in China is regulated by the Ministry of Public Security under the Security Services Management Regulations (MPS Order No. 564, 2010). PSB requires all security to be delivered through registered local entities; foreign operators must partner with PSB-registered companies. Operator licence status should be confirmed before any engagement. Residential security assessments for assignees are delivered through vetted, licensed operators. The operational structure in China should be understood before any residential engagement commences.
Domestic Staff Vetting
Identity verification and employment history checks for household employees. For principals in Wuhan's automotive, advanced manufacturing, and technology sectors, background checks for staff with access to devices, home office equipment, or sensitive commercial paperwork carry additional weight. Employment history verification with previous Wuhan-based employers is included as standard.
