The National Police Agency (NPA) (警察庁 Keisatsu-chō?) is the central coordinating agency of the Japanese police system. It is administered by the National Public Safety Commission, which appoints the Commissioner General (警察庁長官 Keisatsu-chō Chōkan?). As head of the NPA, the Commissioner General holds the highest position in the Japanese police.

The NPA supervises the Regional Police Bureaus and prefectural police organizations, as well as the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department. Unlike the Federal Bureau of Investigation of the United States, the NPA does not have any police officers of its own. Instead, its role is to determine general standards and policies, although in national emergencies or large-scale disasters the agency is authorized to take command of prefectural police forces.
