The West Bengal Police Service (WBPS) is the state police service of West Bengal, India. Officers of the WBPS serve under the jurisdiction of the West Bengal Police and assist the Indian Police Service officers in maintaining law and order in the state. WBPS officers are recruited through the WBCS Exam.

Furthermore, if a WBPS officer successfully qualifies in the departmental examinations at an early stage, the promotion to the IPS cadre may be achieved within approximately 6–7 years of service.
