Uganda Licensing (Uganda Police · PSO Regulations 2013)

Why protection in Uganda must be licensed.

In Uganda, private security organisations are licensed and supervised by the Uganda Police Force under the Police (Control of Private Security Organisations) Regulations 2013. Every operative must be registered with the Inspector General of Police and renew that registration annually, and any firearms are controlled under the Firearms Act. Only firms on the current approved register may lawfully deploy.

Algoz coordinates protection in Uganda exclusively through this licensed framework, with every operative registered, NDA-bound and discreet. See how our close protection works, add concierge and secure transport, or coordinate regional movement through Cairo and Dubai.

Good to Know

Bodyguard in Uganda - Frequently Asked Questions

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

The hard part in Kampala is not finding a security firm; it is knowing which ones deserve your trust. Registration with the Inspector General of Police under the PSO Regulations 2013 is renewed annually, yet paperwork alone says nothing about discipline on a safari airstrip or outside a Kololo residence. Algoz has already tested the Ugandan market, retained the few providers who meet our standard, and dropped the rest. We assemble the detail for your itinerary, bind it under NDA, and supervise it from first arrival to final departure, whether that is city movement or upcountry logistics into Bwindi. You deal with one accountable contact, not an unfamiliar vendor.

Do you provide close protection and secure transport in Uganda?

Yes. Licensed officers and secure transport cover arrivals, business travel, residences and safari movements for visiting principals and executives, coordinated discreetly through one contact.

Is Uganda safe for visitors?

Kampala and other destinations across Uganda are generally safe for visitors, though awareness and discretion are always recommended. Qualified professionals ensure comfort, reliability and an extra layer of personal protection.

Can you provide security on safari?

Yes. We coordinate protection and logistics beyond the capital, including private safaris in Queen Elizabeth and Murchison Falls National Parks and gorilla trekking in Bwindi.

Can you combine security with transport and VIP services?

Yes. Transportation, security and VIP services are arranged together for comfort and reliability across both city and country.

How much notice do you need?

Most assignments are arranged on short lead times; for safari and upcountry logistics we recommend giving as much notice as possible.

Can the client choose the bodyguard they prefer?

Usually, yes. With reasonable notice we present operative profiles for approval before deployment - English-speaking officers, personnel experienced in upcountry and safari movement, or a female officer for family assignments - and the client makes the selection. That choice stands whenever it fits the protection plan; where our security assessment points another way, the assessment decides.
