INTERPOL
How police in 196 countries exchange data and which rules limit it.
International legal protection in INTERPOL matters
Legal assistance in challenging INTERPOL data and in applications to the Commission for the Control of INTERPOL’s Files.
Initial assessments are confidential. We have no access to INTERPOL databases and do not promise guaranteed deletion — only professional work through established procedures.
Practice areas
Each area is a distinct legal procedure with its own requirements, timeframes and risks.
CCF
The independent body deciding requests for access, correction and deletion.
Red Notice
What a notice means, its consequences and the grounds for challenge.
Procedures we handle
What each procedure means and when you need it.
CCF
The independent body that decides on requests for access, correction and deletion.
Red Notice
A request to police worldwide to locate and provisionally arrest a person. It is not an international arrest warrant.
How we work
From your first message to the Commission’s decision.
Confidential request
You describe your situation through the form. Documents are stored encrypted.
Initial assessment
A lawyer reviews the facts and explains which procedures apply and what the realistic prospects are.
Strategy and preparation
We build the legal position, gather evidence and translations, and prepare the application to the CCF.
Support until decision
We handle correspondence with the Commission and coordinate with national proceedings.
Why INTERPOL matters require a dedicated practice
An application to the CCF is not an appeal in a criminal case. It is a dispute about compliance with the internal rules of an international organisation, with its own procedure, languages and standard of proof.
A distinct body of law
INTERPOL’s Constitution, the Rules on the Processing of Data and the CCF Statute form a self-contained legal framework.
A different question to prove
The Commission does not assess guilt. The task is to show a breach of INTERPOL’s rules and support it with documents.
Several jurisdictions at once
Criminal proceedings, country of residence, asylum and extradition — the position must be consistent across all of them.
The cost of mistakes
A poorly drafted application can reveal the defence strategy too early and complicate later steps.

Questions and answers
Can a Red Notice be removed with a guarantee?
No. The decision is made by the Commission for the Control of INTERPOL’s Files on the facts of the case. No honest lawyer can guarantee the outcome.
Do you have access to INTERPOL databases?
No, and no private lawyer does. Information can only be obtained through lawful procedures, primarily a request for access to the CCF.
Request a case assessment
Describe your situation and a lawyer will review it and contact you. Your request is confidential.
We do not promise guaranteed deletion of data: decisions are made by the Commission for the Control of INTERPOL’s Files on the facts of each case.
