The changing of the guard proper: The relieving company has marched in as scheduled above. The company to be relieved is standing already on the opposite side. Both companies will then march in a half circle and take the place of the other one. This is accompanied by music and by the relevant commands and reports.

If the unit is lined up at a state visit, the commander will not stay in the line but step up to report to the state guest and accompany him/her for the usual inspection of the troops.

Military Honours at State Visits

• At state visits of Heads of Government, military honours are delivered by a company of Guards, therefore the same procedure as above applies.
• At state visits of Heads of State, a full battalion is required, therefore the same procedure as below applies, as a Regiment of Guards has the de facto strength of a battalion.

Confer of Honorary Command

• As this pertains to the whole Regiment of Guards, three companies are employed; above, only one company was shown. The music corps may be reinforced.
