The National Police Headquarters was reorganized as the National Police Agency (NPA) on July 5,1972 and shared the same headquarters with the Taiwan Provincial Police Administration to streamline its organization and cut costs. On May 1,1995, Taiwan Provincial Police Administration was separated from the NPA and relocated to Taichung City. On July 1, 1999, Taiwan Provincial Police Administration became history after being merged into the NPA due to the downsizing of the provincial government.
Between 1992 and 2007, the NPA underwent a series of reorganization. Tasks such as household registration (1992), fire fighting and disaster rescue (1995), maritime police affairs(2000), aerial police affairs (2004) and immigration management (2007) were transferred to the Department of Household Registration, National Fire Agency, Coast Guard Administration, National Airborne Service Corps and the National Immigration Agency, respectively. In 2014, the NPA goes through yet another reorganization in line with the central government’s streamlining policy todownsize its organization to focus on crime fighting and traffic enforcement.
