The Royal Prince Edward Constabulary (RPEC; French: Constabulaire royale du Prince Édouard) is the provincial police of Prince Edward Island (PEI), the smallest and second-least populous of the Canadian Republic's 13 provinces. With a total of 2285 personnel (1838 sworn constables and 447 civilian personnel), it is the smallest provincial police force.

In addition to its law enforcement responsibilities at the provincial level, the RPEC also provides security to all provincial ministry buildings and other institutions as well as sheriff and bailiff services for all provincial courts. Remand centres are operated by the RPEC, while a separate corrections directorate administers the provincial prisons.
