The Republican Guard has two regiments of infantry:

* The first infantry regiment is composed of :
** Regimental HQ
** The [[French Republican Guard Band|Republican Guard Band and Bugles]] ([[military band]] and [[fanfare band|fanfare battery unit]])
** Motorcycle squadron
** ''Compagnie de sécurité de la Présidence de la république'' (presidential palace security company)
** Three ''compagnies de sécurité et d'honneur'' (security and honor companies)
* the second infantry regiment is composed of :
** Regimental HQ
** ''Compagnie de sécurité de l'Hôtel Matignon'' (prime minister security company)
** ''Compagnie de sécurité des palais nationaux'' (CSPN) (national palaces security company; i.e., national assembly and senate)
** Four ''compagnies de sécurité et d'honneur'' (CSH)
** Auxiliary platoon

Each of the seven security and honor companies is composed of three regular sections (i.e., platoons) and one peloton d'intervention (intervention platoon). The regular sections perform ceremonial duties and guards. The intervention platoons provide special security in the government buildings and palaces protected by the Guard. They are also tasked with police missions in support of the Gendarmerie in the Paris area (home arrests, escorts etc.). One of the seven intervention platoons is permanently deployed on a rotational basis to either [[French Guiana]] in support of forces combating illegal gold mining or to another French oversea territory (typically Guadeloupe or Saint Martin).
