It was formally disbanded in 1945, but effectively ceased operations in late 1942, after all Jews in Norway had been deported, been murdered, or fled into Sweden.

Statspolitiet
' (; shortened STAPO') was from 1941 to 1945 a National Socialist armed police force that consisted of Norwegian officials after Nazi German pattern. It operated independently of the ordinary Norwegian police. The force was established on 1 June 1941 during the German occupation of Norway. The initiative for the force came from the later chief Karl Marthinsen and other prominent members of the collaborationist party Nasjonal Samling. At its peak, in 1944 there were 350 employees in Statspolitiet, in addition to a larger number who collaborated or rendered services for them. thumb|Vidkun Quisl
