ADMISSIONS

REQUIREMENTS AND PROCEDURES

Authorities, police, public safety, intelligence and security whose country is a member of the United Nations or INTERPOL or who were admitted to the INTERPORTPOLICE before 2010.

A statuary authority may file for  Observer Status (no fee) because of the current budget constraints.  However, the policy change for authority funding allocation that was suspended in 2010 at the Vancouver, B.C. Canada forum, due to requests of several authorities, has been vacated effective in 2023 unless  Observing Status is granted. The Organization was placed in a situation that depleted its funds because of this previous policy, and like any organization, funding is essential to maintain the global efforts of the organization.

AUTHORITY ADMISSION

STATUARY AUTHORITY

Be a legally constituted government, authority, or regulated authority for law enforcement security or intelligence responsible for aviation, maritime, transport or border sector.

STATUARY CONTRIBUTIONS: Each authority contributes a minimum contribution each year or applies for observing status.  

• Apply for admission per the guidelines and policies of the INTERPORTPOLICE.

  • Law enforcement, security, and intelligence authority/government agency related to aviation, maritime or transport (includes border/transit).  

  • Port Authority security and/or public safety related to aviation, maritime or transport (including border/transit).

  • Regulated Authority: Port Authority security and/or public safety related to aviation, maritime or transport or border that are a private organization but regulated or contracted by a government authority] 

Funding – The requirements to work globally and assist member countries and authorities from traditional resources go beyond police and security budgets. Therefore voluntary funding from governments and security organizations, non-governmental organizations and private entities through programmes, projects, grants, and other contributions become essential. We appreciate appropriate enquiries.
