These ceremonial duties of Paspampres are usually assigned towards personnel of the "State Protocol Escort Battalion" ("Batalyon Pengawal Protokoler Kenegaraan " abbreviated "Yonwalprotneg"), a detachment of Paspampres consisting of chosen Military policemen from the Military Police Corps of Indonesia. This unit also becomes the Honour Guard during the arrival ceremony at the airport apron during a state visit and also becomes the main Honour guard during a state funeral. The uniform worn by the Paspampres Honour guard is a red long sleeved full dress uniform with a white buff belt worn on the upper waist, white trousers with white parade boots and a black shako as the headdress. During certain ceremonies such as a state funeral or changing of the guard ceremony, a light blue beret is worn instead. Four battalions of military police guardsmen are assigned to each of the 4 guards regiments under this important command, and the battalion assigned to Group A is the designated guard of honour battalion for public duties within Merdeka Palace. During the presidency of Joko Widodo a Paspampres guard of honour company of MPs has also been mounted at Bogor Palace alongside the resident guard battalion there during state visits hosted at this residence.
