Field Organization

CONDIVIDI

There is a Questura in each of the 103 Italian provincial capitals. It is responsible for all the activities carried out by the Polizia di Stato within the province.

In major cities and highly populated towns there are police stations named "Commissariato". Each Commissariato is under the authority of the provincial Questura.

Their task is to control, prevent and fight crime in their jurisdiction, and to deal with paperwork as to, among other things, requests for gun licences, passports, permits, and regularization of foreigners.
