The Foreign Intelligence and Security Service is the primary intelligence agency of Raxtia, and is currently the only operational service in the nation.

Establishment & Role

The service was originally planned for a 2016 start up date, however the government decided to give the service a trial run before launching it and the other three services properly in 2016.
The Roles of the service, when fully operational, will be:

  • Counter Terrorism
  • Counterintelligence
  • Security of Raxtia's People and Economy
  • Abating of Human Trafficking and Drugs Smuggling
  • Intelligence and Covert Operations on foreign soil

The Service will also work in co-operation with the Raxtian Domestic Security Service (RDSS), the Organized Crime Prevention Department (OCPD) and the Office Of Comms (OOC) to fulfill some of its roles.
The government cannot comment on any specific operation that will be carried out, either during the trial period or during full operation

Staffing

The number of staff in the service will be 2,000 when operational, but that will soon go up as the work of the service becomes more complex and secretive. The trial run is utilising 750 staff from the police, the Customs Service, specialist staff from the militi group in the country and some hired staff.

Headquarters

FISS Headquarters-Cruz De Providencia

The headquarters has been chosen as a site in Relekettia (Raxtia's capital) the adress of which being 13 Cruz De Providencia (Providence Cross). The headquarters buildings are modern and well suited to an service of the type. The buildings have a reasonably close proximity to the central square and the Palace De Democracie, and they are in the safe region of the capital, where terrorists, if there are any willing to target Raxtia, will probably be spotted by either armed police on the ground or by covert CCTV cameras, which are only used to monitor public activities around government HQ or any government agency HQ's.
The headquarters buildings may, however, change when the service goes operational and it is likely that the service will move to a new headquarters as and when it outgrows Providence Cross.
