Who can be an Executive Protection Specialist / Bodyguard?
Under most state laws, those wish to be an executive protection specialist/bodyguard must be licensed in their state to do so, most commonly as a Private Investigator. An executive protection specialist/ bodyguard is any plain clothes personal protection specialist, who may or may not carry a concealed firearm. Additionally, any person who carries a firearm while under employment or providing executive protection must carry their firearm concealed at all times, and must also hold the applicable state license to do so, which is different than a Concealed Carry Weapons Permit.
