The EinsFüKdoBw basically plans and leads all foreign missions of the German armed forces - whether in a national or multinational context. During planning, the military mission and the forces and resources required for it are coordinated. Management includes uniform responsibility for personnel and material in the respective area of operation.
The EinsFüKdoBw is the operational command of the Bundeswehr and is the only department that issues national instructions to the contingent leaders in the operational areas. These usually receive their orders from multinational headquarters. The operational command ensures that the deployment of German forces is carried out in accordance with the mandate and that the legal norms of the Federal Republic of Germany are not violated. The commander of EinsFüKdoBw is responsible to the Inspector General of the Bundeswehr for the leadership of the operational forces subordinate to him.
The special forces operations command (Kommando Führung Operationen von Spezialkräften), which was already based on site, was integrated into a new special operations department in April 2012 and assigned to the EinsFüKdoBw commander.
On May 11, 2017, the staff and telecommunications battalion was disbanded. Its tasks and personnel were partly taken over by the newly established headquarters.
