SIRA-Certified Close Protection Officer in Dubai
In Dubai, close protection is a licensed profession. SIRA certification is not a premium badge - it is the legal baseline for anyone protecting you.
What is SIRA?
SIRA - the Security Industry Regulatory Agency - is the Dubai government body that regulates the private security industry under the Dubai Police framework. It licenses security companies, trains and certifies individual officers, and sets the standards for close protection work in the Emirate.
Official SIRA website (sira.gov.ae) ↗Why clients should ask for certification
Hiring an uncertified operator in Dubai is not a bargain - it is illegal, and it can void your insurance if something goes wrong. A SIRA-certified close protection officer has passed the regulator’s training and screening, works under UAE law, and is accountable for professional conduct on every assignment.
- Ask to see individual SIRA certification before you commit
- Confirm the scope and rate in writing before the first shift
- Insist on one accountable officer - not anonymous rotating staff
