Can I be arrested at a US airport if the Red Notice was already deleted by Interpol?

Deletion from Interpol’s database does not guarantee immediate removal from all US law enforcement systems. US Customs and Border Protection and the FBI maintain their own lookout databases, which are updated separately from Interpol’s I-24/7 system. Synchronisation delays of weeks or even months are common. After obtaining CCF deletion, it is advisable to request written confirmation from Interpol’s General Secretariat and, where possible, proactively notify US authorities through counsel before travel. Carrying certified documentation of the deletion when crossing US borders provides additional protection against wrongful detention.
