International Register of Professional Bodyguards register now

The IRPB is not a bodyguard association or federation but is a registration system for all professional bodyguards and instructors worldwide. Registration will be recognised and maintained through the achievement of experience and the gaining of recognised qualifications and training. Its aim is to create a framework of international regulation and registration within which professionals in the industry can achieve the highest standards linked to best practice in the protection and related security sectors.

The IRPB exists to demonstrate that as professionals, we are competent and qualified to do our job. The Register will be a central feature of the professionalism of the industry on a global level and is essential in giving clients and contractors the necessary level of confidence in the quality of its members’ services.

Registration to the IRPB is open to ANY professional trained bodyguard worldwide, regardless of other industry memberships and association, and signifies that the Security Professional has met certain standards of good practice. The IRPB encourages a properly qualified base of professionals who:

  • Have at least two years verifiable close protection experience
  • Have gained recognised, approved and verifiable qualifications in close protection - wherever in the world they are based and whatever their military / security / professional background
  • Can provide at least TWO industry references.
