How it's used

Refers specifically to high-level, strategic directives issued by a central government rather than local or departmental regulations. It carries a formal and serious tone, often appearing in news reports, political analysis, or official government documents. Using it in casual conversation about minor daily rules will sound overly stiff or satirical.

Common mistake

Avoid using this to describe company policies or personal rules, as it is strictly reserved for state-level governance. Learners sometimes confuse it with general terms like 政策, but 國策 implies a much broader, foundational scope.
