Federal Police officers

History

[edit]

In 2005, the Federal Police replaced the AustrianFederal Gendarmerie, which policed most of the country, and thePolizei, which policed Austria’s major urban centres such asVienna,Salzburg andGraz.[1] The Federal Police also serves as Austria’sborder control agency.[2]

In October 2021, the FP unveiled the Schnelle Interventionsgruppe (SIG) or the Rapid Intervention Group as a response to concerns that police response to serious incidents cannot be mobilized on time.[3] The SIG is deployed in various cities in Austria.[3] The SIG is under the Schnellen Reaktionskräfte (SRK) or Rapid Reaction Force with the Bereitschaftseinheit (BE) or the Standby Unit.[4]

Command structure

[edit]

The Federal Police is commanded by the Austrian Federal Ministry of the Interior. The Federal Minister of the Interior is the highest law enforcement authority.

The Federal Police works in partnership with the 19municipal police agencies and other law enforcement agencies in Austria.

The Provincial Police Directorates - established as federal authorities in the provinces - are subordinate to the Federal Minister. District administrative authorities (i.e. authorities established in the provinces for indirect federal administration) are subordinate to the Provincial Police Directorates.

There are nine separate provincial police directorates which correspond to the nine provinces of Austria:

Dependent on the division, the districts and cities are controlled by either a District Police Command or a City Police Command. These commands then operate through several police stations throughout the state.
