The U.S. National Central Bureau (USNCB) was authorized by statute (22 U.S.C. 263a) and operates within the guidelines prescribed by the Department of Justice, in conjunction with the Department of Homeland Security.

The mission of the US National Central Bureau is to facilitate international law enforcement cooperation as the United States representative with the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL), on behalf of the Attorney General.

The major functions of the USNCB are to:

  • Transmit information of a criminal justice, humanitarian, or other law enforcement related nature between National Central Bureaus of INTERPOL member countries, and law enforcement agencies of the United States.

  • Respond to requests by law enforcement agencies, and legitimate organizations, institutions and individuals, when in agreement with the INTERPOL constitution.

  • Coordinate and integrate information for investigations of an international nature and identify those involving patterns and trends of criminal activities.
