HomeLegal Assistance for Removing INTERPOL Red Notices
The lawyers filed a request with Interpol’s CCF, provided evidence of outdated information and obtained the removal of the Red Notice, restoring the client’s freedom of movement.
Case Overview
A foreign national contacted us following a brief detention in Senegal due to their name appearing on INTERPOL’s website since 2009. Although the individual was questioned and subsequently released, the experience underscored the urgent need to address the Red Notice. The client sought our expertise to understand the removal process and to clear their name from INTERPOL’s records.
Legal Challenges in INTERPOL Red Notice Removal
Removing a name from INTERPOL’s Red Notice list involves a series of legal and procedural hurdles. The primary challenges in this case were:
- Historical Notice: The Red Notice had been active since 2009, requiring a thorough investigation into its origin and validity.
- Lack of Transparency: Accessing details about the notice and its justification was complicated due to limited transparency in INTERPOL’s data-sharing policies.
- Cross-Jurisdictional Coordination: Ensuring compliance with both the client’s current country of residence and the country that issued the notice.
Our legal team initiated the process by filing a formal request with INTERPOL’s Commission for the Control of Files (CCF) to review the notice. This involved preparing comprehensive documentation, including evidence that the notice was outdated and no longer relevant. We also collaborated with local legal representatives to address any potential issues arising during the review process.

This resolution restored the client’s freedom to travel without fear of detention and provided peace of mind.
