GNR Intervention Unit

Call 112 in Emergency

The National Republican Guard is a security force of a military nature, made up of soldiers organized in a special body of troops and endowed with administrative autonomy, with jurisdiction throughout the national territory and in the territorial sea.

Despite having suffered the direct reflexes of periods of crisis or threat to order and security, increasing or decreasing their numbers with variations of the order of 8,000, it remained, however, as essentially unalterable and fundamental characteristics, their military organization, the governmental double dependence of the Minister of Defense and of the Internal Administration and the subjection to the Code of Military Justice.

Due to its nature and versatility, GNR finds its institutional position in all military forces and security forces and services, being the only security force with military nature and organization, characterizing itself as a Military Security Force.
