2 hrs confidence:

styrelse

Explanation:
Jeg tror, det skal opfattes mere bredt end borgerservicekontor, så styrelse kan måske være et bud.

Example sentence(s):

Direktorater og styrelser er ofte karakteriseret ved at udføre meget specifikke opgaver, der i det daglige ikke nyder stor politisk bevågenhed.
Udlændingestyrelsen (under Justitsministeriet) behandler sager vedrørende familiesammenføring, asyl, visum, permanent opholdstilladelse
