Protocol
Dignitary Protocol
Ministerial, diplomatic, and C-suite coordination — handled the way the principal's office expects.
For: Embassies, consulates, ministerial offices, corporate chairmen's offices, sovereign-wealth visiting delegations.
Dignitary movement at an Indian airport is a chain of small, sequenced courtesies — the right desk officer notified at the right hour, the right vehicle at the right gate, the right protocol observed at the right handover. We coordinate that chain in advance with the airport authority, Bureau of Immigration, ground-handling supplier, and the principal's office or embassy POC. On the day, the principal experiences a single calm arc from aircraft door to motorcade — every transition pre-rehearsed, nothing left to airport happenstance.

Departure & debrief
Mirror service for departure leg if engaged. Written debrief to office of principal within 24 hours — anything observed, any process recommendation for next visit. Invoice raised against embassy / office PO with full audit trail.
Engagement & pricing
Quoted per visit against the brief. Pricing reflects protocol-officer credentialling, number of authority coordinations required, lounge bookings, and vehicle-side arrangements. Embassies and ministerial offices are typically invoiced against a standing PO with consolidated monthly billing for repeat visits.
We do not publish embassy or ministerial client lists. References available on direct request from another embassy or ministerial office, never publicly posted.
