Komenda Główna Policji

What Komenda Główna Policji does

Komenda Główna Policji (Polish Police Headquarters) is the central governing body of the Polish national police force, operating under the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Administration (MSWiA). It traces its institutional origins to July 24, 1918, when Policja Państwowa was established following Poland's regained independence, and is currently led by Komendant Główny Policji General Inspector Marek Boroń. The agency delivers law enforcement, public safety, traffic enforcement, emergency response, criminal investigation, search and rescue, and missing persons services to all citizens and residents of Poland through a nationwide network of 17 voivodeship commands (KWP), the Warsaw Metropolitan Command (KSP), specialized central units, training academies, and local precincts.

The organization maintains a multi-portal digital ecosystem anchored by the main public portal Policja.pl, supplemented by specialized portals for the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBŚP), the Central Cybercrime Bureau (CBZC), and dedicated statistical reporting at Statystyka.policja.pl. Citizen-facing services include ChildAlert.pl for missing children, the Krajowa Mapa Zagrożeń Bezpieczeństwa for community threat reporting, portals for wanted and missing persons, a road safety portal (Dla kierowców), and an e-services portal designed for accessibility (including deaf and hard-of-hearing users). Operational units include the Central Counter-Terrorist Unit BOA, the Central Forensic Laboratory (CLKP), and the Police aviation unit. Educational and training functions are delivered through the Police Academy in Szczytno, the Training Center in Legionowo, and three regional Police Schools.

The agency does not operate a commercial revenue model; it is funded entirely through the Polish state budget allocated annually by parliament and administered through MSWiA. Services are provided free of charge to citizens through emergency numbers 997/112, police stations, the policja.pl portal, and specialized service centers. International cooperation is conducted through EUROPOL, INTERPOL, Frontex, and bilateral agreements with partner agencies including Czech, Belgian, and German counterparts, supporting joint investigations on drug trafficking, organized crime, and cybercrime.
