Private detective profession: what about the territorial limit?

The profession of private detective is a profession regulated by the Internal Security Code. Article L621-1 of the Internal Security Code defines the profession of private detective-investigator as "the liberal activity which consists of a person collecting, even reporting on their capacity or revealing the object of their mission, information or information intended for third parties, with a view to defending their interests.

This characteristic is essential because the independence of this profession is at stake, offering its components unparalleled responsiveness.
