Frequently Asked Questions

What is shown on the Port Authority Police patch?

It is a blue pointed shield with a gold border. PORT AUTHORITY POLICE arches across the top, with NEW YORK and NEW JERSEY up the sides, all in white. The center shows the Twin Towers with an American flag, the number 37, and the date 9-11-01, making it a September 11 memorial patch.

What does the number 37 mean on the patch?

The number 37 honors the thirty-seven Port Authority of New York and New Jersey police officers who died in the line of duty during the September 11, 2001 attacks. It was the largest loss of life of any single police department that day.

What does 9-11-01 stand for?

9-11-01 is the date September 11, 2001. The patch is a memorial design honoring the Port Authority officers and all those lost in the attacks on the World Trade Center.

Can you make a custom memorial or public safety patch like this for our agency?

Yes. A shield with a central commemorative scene and wrapped lettering is a flexible template. Our artwork team can create a memorial, unit, or department patch to your design, with a free proof before production.

How much does a patch like this cost, and what is the minimum order?

Estimated pricing runs from about $17 each at 10 units down to roughly $2 each at 1,000 units, with no setup or mold fee. The minimum order starts as low as 10 pieces, so smaller runs for a specialty unit are welcome.

Do I need credentials to order a patch with the Port Authority Police name on it?

Yes. Patches bearing a real agency name such as the Port Authority Police are sold only to that agency or its authorized representatives. Public-safety buyers provide proof of occupation, valid credentials, or an authorized purchasing letter before production begins. Custom or renamed designs are welcome without that step.
