Shanghai Municipal Police

Shanghai Municipal Police (kinesisk: 上海公共租界巡捕房) var Shanghai Municipal Councils politistyrke som hadde ansvar for Shanghai International Settlement fra 1854 til 1943.

Styrken var opprinnelig sammensatt av europeere, for det meste av briter, men tok opp kinesere fra 1864. Den ble over de neste 90 år ekspandert til å omfatte en Sikh-avdeling (opprettet i 1884), en japansk kontingent (fra 1916) og en frivillig deltids spesialpolitistyrke (fra 1918).  I 1941 fikk den en russisk hjelpestyrke (det tidligere russiske regiment av Shanghai Volunteer Corps).
