The United States Virgin Islands Police Department is the law enforcement agency for the United States Virgin Islands, and has jurisdiction anywhere in the territory. It is commanded by a commissioner, who is subject to the authority of the governor.^[1]

The Royal Virgin Islands Police Force is responsible for policing the British Virgin Islands.

Under the 1936 Organic Act of the Virgin Islands,^[2] law enforcement was divided between the municipality of St. Thomas and St. John and the municipality of St. Croix, each of which had a separate Police and Prison Department.^[3] The 1954 revisions to the Organic Act required that these municipal departments be reorganized as part of a territorial executive branch.^[3] The current Virgin Islands Police Department traces its origin to the establishment of the Department of Public Safety, which contained a Police Division, on July 21, 1955.^[4] The department was renamed the U.S. Virgin Islands Police Department in 1985.^[4]

The USVIPD operates a variety of vehicles, including cars and SUVs.^[5] In 2018 it acquired a fleet of Segways and electric cars for patrolling downtown areas of St. Thomas.^[6]
