Turkish Licensing (Law 5188)

Why protection in Turkey must be licensed.

In Turkey, private security is governed by Law No. 5188. Every private security officer (özel güvenlik görevlisi) must hold a valid licence and ID card under provincial governorate oversight, and firearms are tightly controlled.

Algoz coordinates protection in Bodrum exclusively through this licensed framework, with every operative vetted, NDA-bound and discreet. See how our close protection works, add concierge and secure transport, or extend across Istanbul and Mykonos.

Indicative Investment

What protection in Bodrum costs.

As a guide, professional close protection in Turkey is, in 2026, from EUR 850 per day for a single principal on twelve-hour cover - the market base - with the final rate shaped by the profile, the threat picture and the season, and confirmed on enquiry with no obligation. Specialist profiles, armed or armoured requirements, short-notice mobilisation and peak season carry a premium.

Bodyguard in Bodrum - Frequently Asked Questions

Why use Algoz rather than hiring a local security agency in Bodrum directly?

Consider what the Bodrum season actually demands: coordinated movement between yacht, tender, villa and beach club, delivered by officers licensed under Law No. 5188 and overseen by the provincial governorate. The peninsula fills with seasonal security outfits every summer, and from a distance a principal has no way of separating a disciplined, properly licensed team from one assembled for the high season alone - a gap that only shows itself mid-engagement. Algoz resolves that by having vetted the Turkish coastal market in advance: we keep the proven operators, match the team to your itinerary, brief them under NDA and supervise them daily, so a single accountable contact answers for the whole arrangement.

Is it legal to hire a bodyguard in Bodrum, and is it licensed?

Yes. Private security in Turkey is governed by Law No. 5188, with licensed officers under governorate oversight. Algoz coordinates only licensed Turkish operators, so your detail is fully compliant.

Can you protect a yacht, villa and movement between them?

Yes. Villa and marina access control and coordinated movement between yacht, tender and shore are central to a Bodrum brief, planned alongside the protection team.

Do you have Arabic and Russian-speaking officers?

Yes. The Bodrum season draws Gulf, Russian and European guests, and we coordinate multilingual officers, including Arabic and Russian speakers, on request.

How quickly can you mobilise in Bodrum?

Seven days is the minimum we ask for, and more is better. Inside that week the brief is vetted, the right officer is assigned and released from other work, and the advance work on routes, venues and access is done properly. We will always look at shorter notice, but under 48 hours is an urgency case: it carries additional fees and it cannot be guaranteed. Nobody produces a licensed officer in 24 hours, whatever the promise.

Do you provide female officers in Bodrum?

Yes. Female close protection officers are available on request, well suited to family assignments and discreet movement on the coast.

Can the client choose the officer profile?

Wherever notice allows, yes. Many Bodrum clients request Arabic- or Russian-speaking officers for the season, female CPOs for family and villa work, or operatives comfortable moving unnoticed through beach clubs and marinas, and we accommodate the preference whenever it is operationally sound. The one limit is our professional security assessment, which takes precedence over personal choice in every engagement.
