At present, in China, private bodyguards have long become the demand of the society, and there are hundreds of thousands of employees of private bodyguards. With more and more customers hiring private bodyguards, some customers can't help wondering, is it legal to hire private bodyguards in China? In fact, WangPaiDun believes that there are two points to solve the puzzle: first, whether the existence of private bodyguards in China is legal. In fact, before, in China, private bodyguards had no legal protection and management regulations, and had been wandering in the gray area. From 1989 to March 1, 2000, the Ministry of Public Security issued documents three times, clearly stipulating in relevant documents that "security service companies shall not provide personal security services". Until January 1, 2010, the first administrative regulation of China's security service industry, the regulations on the administration of security services, was officially implemented, which stipulates that security service companies can provide portable security services. So far, "private bodyguards" have finally become legal and bathed in the sunshine of the law... So until now, the existence of private bodyguards in China is legal. Second, in China, whether it is legal to hire private bodyguards. At present, China's law does not prohibit the private employment of bodyguards. With the permission of national laws and local regulations, private bodyguards can provide various security services for personnel who encounter unknown threats or potential crises due to changes in positions and asset stages. But only if it is not illegal for individuals to hire private bodyguards. For example, it is illegal to hire a principal for drug trafficking and smuggling. If you hire a private bodyguard to protect your safety, it is illegal. If the employer's requirements are very formal and do not violate laws and regulations, it is legal to hire private bodyguards. Everyone has the right to hire private bodyguards to ensure their own safety. Everyone's life is worth guarding!
