What this is
The annual contribution of licensed private security service providers is a non-tax public revenue collected by the Government from companies authorized to operate in the private security sector. It is an annual fee paid by licensed security firms, including guarding, surveillance, cash-in-transit, close protection, and other approved security service providers, to maintain the validity of their operating licenses and continue their activities legally. This contribution enables the competent authority to monitor, regulate, and supervise the private security industry, ensure compliance with legal and professional standards, and finance inspection, oversight, and regulatory activities related to licensed security service providers.
