(Romanian) Poliţia de Frontieră

The Romanian Border Police (Romanian: Poliţia de Frontieră) is the structure of the Romanian Ministry of Administration and Interior responsible for the border security and passport control at border crossing points, airports and ports.

Ranks

The Border Police uses the same ranking system as the Romanian Police (see Romanian Police#Ranks)

Future prospects

Although the former Interior Minister Cristian David declared that the Border Police would be gradually integrated into the National Police until 2010 or 2011, when Romania was expected to join the Schengen Agreement, the Border Police keeps its current status and remains the sole agency tasked with border security and passport control.
