The Government Protection Bureau or Bureau of Government Protection (Polish: Biuro Ochrony Rządu, BOR, Polish pronunciation: [ˈbjurɔ ɔˈxrɔnɨ ˈʐɔndu]) was Poland's equivalent of the United States Secret Service, providing antiterrorism and VIP security services for the Polish government. On February 1, 2018, the bureau was disbanded and a new State Protection Service (Polish: Służba Ochrony Państwa, SOP) was formed in its place, absorbing its manpower and functions (security of incumbent and former Presidents of Poland, high ranking state officials, institutions and Polish embassies and consulates abroad).
