INTERPOL Notices

Notice Deletion & Correction

Not every INTERPOL removal case is about a full notice — sometimes the issue is inaccurate or outdated data.

Direct answer: A deletion or correction request asks the CCF to remove or amend inaccurate, outdated, or unjustified data processed by INTERPOL. This can apply to an entire notice or diffusion, or to specific incorrect details within an otherwise valid record.
01

Full Deletion

Where a notice or diffusion should not exist at all, on grounds such as political motivation or lack of legal basis.

02

Partial Correction

Where specific details within a record are inaccurate or outdated, even if the underlying notice itself is not challenged.

03

Evidence-Based Submission

Successful applications typically rely on a clear, well-documented factual and legal case.

04

Ongoing Monitoring

Even after a successful deletion, monitoring for re-issuance can be an important further step.

Frequently Asked

Common Questions

What is the difference between deletion and a standard removal request?

They largely overlap — deletion emphasises correcting or removing specific inaccurate data, while removal can address the notice as a whole.

Can outdated information alone justify deletion?

Yes — where information is no longer accurate or the underlying matter has been resolved, that can support a deletion request.

How long does this process take?

Timelines vary by case complexity, generally running from several months to over a year.
