The rank insignia worn vary depending on whether the alta uniforme (high uniform), uniforme di ordinanza (ordinance uniform), or uniforme da campo (field uniform) is worn.[1][2] The alta uniforme distinguishes rank by a series of chevrons and knots on the lower sleeves. The uniforme di ordinanza distinguishes ranks using inverted chevrons on the epaulets of enlisted ranks, and using a series of Tre Penne and towers with battlements for officers. Officers in the uniforme di ordinanza also have a separate set of rank insignia displayed on their lower sleeves, made up of a series of bars and either one, two or three towers for junior, senior, and general officers respectively. General officers also have Greca in their rank insignia similar to their Italian counterparts. The uniforme da campo displays the same insignia as the epaulets of the uniforme di ordinanza worn on either rank slides or patches.[3]
Officers
Officers of all Corps follow the same rank titles, with differences in the colors of the rank insignia worn dependent on the Corps.[4]
The enlisted ranks follow a standard format with Caporale being present in most but not all of the corps and Sergente Maggiore/Maresciallo only being present in the corps that are involved in policing duties.[5]
