Belhaven Police Department

Jurisdiction and responsibilities

Belhaven Police is the municipal department for the Town of Belhaven in Beaufort County. Town administration describes continuous police coverage, while the sheriff identifies Belhaven among agencies served by its communications center.

How the agency is organized

The town’s police-program page describes welfare checks for residents who may need daily contact and a related service for owners of vacation homes. A current municipal recruiting page confirms police employment and identifies application materials rather than merely repeating an old roster name.

Official records and officer resources

The town’s employment notice updated June 8, 2026 describes the F-3 application, certification expectations, and benefits including Local Government Employees’ Retirement System and NC 401(k) participation. Applicants should verify the currently open position and eligibility on that page. The town’s general administrative address is not assumed to be a police station without a police-specific location source.
