Iraqi Federal Police is a paramilitary organization designed to bridge the gap between the police and the army. It responds to domestic incidents beyond the capabilities of the Iraqi Police Service, but not severe enough for the Iraqi Army.

The Federal Police originated as the Special Police on August 2004 to provide national rapid-response capability to counter armed insurgency, large-scale civil disobedience and riots.
