EnquireWhy protection in Athens must be licensed.
In Greece, private security is regulated under Law 2518/1997, with personnel and companies licensed and the Hellenic Police providing oversight. Private protection is unarmed.
Algoz coordinates protection in Athens exclusively through this licensed framework, with every operative licensed, NDA-bound and discreet. See how our close protection works, add concierge and secure transport, or extend across Mykonos and Santorini.
What protection in Athens costs.
As a guide, professional close protection in Greece and the islands is, in 2026, typically EUR 500–800 per day for a single principal on twelve-hour cover, with the final rate confirmed on enquiry and no obligation. Specialist profiles, armed or armoured requirements, short-notice mobilisation and peak season carry a premium.
