General Security Companies in Dubai and UAE

Last Updated on October 4, 2025

The security industry in Dubai and the UAE is strictly regulated by government authorities. Security companies are categorized under licenses issued by SIRA (Security Industry Regulatory Agency) in Dubai and PSCOD (Private Security Companies’ Organization Department) in Abu Dhabi, formerly known as PSBD.

Not every security company in the UAE can provide all types of security services. Firms must apply for and obtain a specific license to carry out specialized security operations, such as:

• Cash-in-transit security
• Airport security
• Bank and financial security
• Hotel and tourism facility security
• Critical infrastructure security

Most companies begin with a General Security Services License, which allows them to provide security for:

• Private houses and villas
• Commercial buildings
• Shopping centers and malls
• Manufacturing companies
• Residential communities
• Car parks and warehouses

Why General Security Services Are Important

With the rapid development of Dubai’s private sector, the demand for professional security services has grown significantly.

The government also emphasizes delivering high-quality security services to ensure a safe environment for residents, businesses, and visitors.

Public and private properties are considered vulnerable without proper protection. Therefore, general security companies in Dubai provide the first layer of safety by deploying trained guards and supervisors across industries and residential areas.

Once these companies meet additional criteria set by SIRA or PSCOD, they can expand into specialized services such as airport security or critical infrastructure protection.

Important Note: If you are employed under a company with only a General Security license, you are not allowed to work in specialized areas such as banks, government offices, hotels, or airports.
