The Romanian General Inspectorate for Emergency Situations (Romanian: Inspectoratul General pentru Situaţii de Urgenţă - IGSU) is a public structure subordinated to the Ministry of Internal Affairs, created on December 15, 2004, by merging the Civil Defense Command (Comandamentul Protecţiei Civile) with the General Inspectorate of the Military Firefighters Corps (Inspectoratul General al Corpului Pompierilor Militari). The structure is specialised in fire safety and civil protection.
At the national level, IGSU coordinates all the organizations involved in the management of emergency situations in compliance with international standards.
At the local level (in counties), the branches are called County Inspectorate for Emergency Situations (acronym: ISU), with each branch having multiple subunits (fire stations, detachments, intervention guards).
