Unreferenced date August 2008 The Royal StaffCorps was a corps of the British Army which was founded in c.1800 and disbanded in c.1837. It was generally responsible for short term military engineering works, with the Royal Engineers and Corps of Royal Sappers and Miners remaining responsible for permanent works, but the boundaries between the functions of the corps were blurred. The Royal StaffCorps answered to the Quartermaster General to the Forces Quartermaster General instead of to the Board of Ordnance . It also seems to have provided personnel for military police and orderly duties. On its disbandment most of its personnel transferred to the Royal Engineers and the Corps of Royal Sappers and Miners.

The Indian StaffCorps was a branch of the British Indian Army during British Raj Colonial rule . Separate StaffCorps were formed in 1861 for the Bengal, Madras and Bombay Armies, which constituted the Indian Army, although they were later amalgamated. They were meant to provide officers for the native regiments, and for the staff and army departments. They were also designed to offer placements for civil and political appointments for posts which Indian Army officers might be eligible. Those officers who were already employed by the Army had the option to join the StaffCorps or to stay employed under the old conditions of work. In that sense it was seen by the majority of post 1860 entrants as synonymous with the Regular Officer Corps of the Indian Army. This is not to be confused with officers holding staff appointments. To reduce confusion, the term Indian StaffCorps in relation to officers on regimental duty was withdrawn by Herbert Kitchener, 1st Earl Kitchener Lord Kitchener during his unification of the Indian Army. From that time, officers were gazetted to the Indian Army .
