The Security Police and SD in the occupied Baltic territories were, in operational terms, under the command of the Reich Security Main Office in Berlin; in organizational terms, this regional structure was under the Reichskommissariat Ostland, based in Riga. The documents of the collection entered the RGVA among captured materials taken to the USSR by the Red Army; some of the materials came from the KGB Investigative Department at the USSR Council of Ministers in 1955 and, in 1970, from the USSR Council of Ministers Main Archive

The collection's contents are catalogued in two inventories. The inventories are, for the most part, arranged chronologically. The collection contains dispatches, German translations of documents, minutes, circulars, orders, reports, reviews, secret publications, accounts, correspondence, special bulletins, transcripts of testimony, and assorted other materials, such as copies of documents (from the German Democratic Republic) and maps. There is information on the participation of Jews in the partisan movement in the Baltics, and notes by the head of the Main Office of the Security Police and SD in Berlin on a meeting on conscripting Jews for labor duty in case of war and on creating special camps for this purpose. Participants in the meeting were representatives of the German High Command and of the Main Office of the Police and SS, and Gruppenführer Eicke, the Inspector of Concentration Camps.
