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).[1]
