Non-Members

As of 2025, Interpol has 196 member countries — effectively all recognised sovereign states. Kosovo, Taiwan, and certain micro-states are not members. North Korea and a few others have membership but limited engagement. However, many non-member territories still cooperate informally with Interpol member states.

Interpol can share data with non-member states under specific bilateral agreements. Most major transit and destination countries are members. If considering travel to a non-member jurisdiction as a “safe haven,” be aware that bilateral police cooperation and extradition mechanisms may still apply.

A Red Notice as such cannot be directly enforced in a non-member country. However, the issuing country may approach the non-member state through diplomatic or bilateral channels. Legal advice specific to your situation and the target jurisdiction is essential before making any travel plans. Learn more about our Interpol Red Notice services at Intercollegium.
