Enquire
German Licensing (§34a GewO)

Why protection in Munich must be licensed.

In Germany, the security trade is regulated under §34a of the Gewerbeordnung (GewO): operatives must pass the Sachkundeprüfung (IHK competence examination) and be entered in the Bewacherregister. Armed protection is tightly restricted.

Algoz coordinates protection in Munich exclusively through this licensed framework, with every operative §34a-qualified, NDA-bound and discreet. See how our close protection works, add concierge and secure transport, or extend across Frankfurt and Vienna.

Indicative Investment

What protection in Munich costs.

As a guide, professional close protection in Germany and Western Europe 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.

Protecting celebrities & public figures

Actors, musicians, athletes, royals and the people the world recognises - celebrity protection is its own discipline: anti-paparazzi strategy, leak-proof operations, crowd and stalker management, and details that switch from red carpet to invisible in the same day.

Good to Know

Bodyguard in Munich - Frequently Asked Questions

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

German regulation is thorough on paper: every operative must pass the IHK Sachkundeprüfung and appear in the Bewacherregister. What §34a GewO cannot certify is temperament, discretion or experience with principals, and between Munich firms those qualities diverge widely. Testing an unknown provider during Oktoberfest or a trade fair week is an experiment no principal should run on themselves. Algoz ran it long ago: we have engaged Bavarian providers, measured them against our standard and kept only the reliable few. We choose the team for your visit, bind it under NDA, supervise it from arrival at Munich Airport to departure, and give you one accountable contact in place of an unvetted contractor.

Is it legal to hire a bodyguard in Germany?

Yes. Germany regulates private security under §34a GewO, requiring the IHK competence examination and registration in the Bewacherregister. Algoz coordinates only qualified German operatives under NDA.

Do you protect visiting families and executives in Munich?

Yes. Licensed officers and secure transport cover residences, business meetings, shopping and seasonal events for visiting families, with multilingual coordination and discreet delivery.

Do you cover executive and corporate visits in Munich?

Yes. We provide confidential protection for headquarters visits, board meetings and business movement, coordinating timing and routing with precision.

Can you provide residential security in the villa districts?

Yes. We arrange residential cover and access control across Bogenhausen, Grünwald and other affluent districts, including overnight presence on request.

Do you cover trade fairs and seasonal events?

Yes. For events such as international trade fairs and Oktoberfest, we provide discreet venue cover and secure movement to and from the venue.

Are your operatives licensed in Germany?

Yes. All operational execution is carried out by partners holding the required German private-security licensing under §34a GewO, fluent in German and English.

Can the client choose the bodyguard they prefer?

Normally yes, provided we have notice. Some principals want a German-speaking officer for corporate settings, others a female CPO for family shopping on Maximilianstrasse, others a suit-and-tie profile that disappears into a boardroom. We offer a choice of qualified profiles wherever possible, yet the security assessment governs the final selection and is never overruled by preference.
