The SS Division Polizei was one of the thirty-eight divisions fielded by the Waffen-SS during World War II.

The SS wanted more troops and thus formed this infantry division of non-SS policemen, eventually numbered as 4th SS. Regarded as the poor relation of the first three, it eventually was motorized but was never considered élite.
