Requirements for Switzerland are being verified. Details below may be incomplete. Tell us what you need.
XGuard has not named a licensing regulator for Switzerland yet, so check the official sources listed below. XGuard lists no required guard documents for Switzerland at the moment. Independent professionals and agencies both list on XGuard; local rules decide who must hold which license.

XGuard is a marketplace. It does not employ security professionals or issue licenses, and it does not promise work. Requirements change, so confirm with the regulator before you apply.
