Close Protection for Diplomatic Visitors to the UK 2026
TL;DR: Close Protection for Diplomatic Visitors to the UK 2026. Written rates. SIA-licensed. Call 020 3488 5714, WhatsApp available, email enquiries.vip.protection.service@mail.com.
Diplomatic visitors receive Met Police protection for scheduled state events. Private CP fills the gap: shopping, private dinners, family time and off-schedule movements.
Coordination with Met Protection
Written brief filed with the visiting mission and (where applicable) the Metropolitan Police Protection Command. Private cover is complementary, never in conflict.
Family and Consort Cover
Ministerial family members frequently travel without Met cover — private CP fills that layer for shopping, museums and private dinners.
Embassy Residence Cover
Additional night cover at ambassadorial residences during sensitive windows — bilateral summits, sanctions announcements, election periods.
Off-Schedule Movements
Personal medical appointments, private dinners, family visits — the largest single request category from diplomatic missions.
