Access Request vs Request for Deletion | FAQ

How does an Access Request differ from a Request for Deletion?

An Access Request is an enquiry to determine whether Interpol holds data about you and whether that data complies with applicable rules. A Request for Deletion is an affirmative legal challenge seeking removal of specific data. The Access Request is typically filed first to establish the factual basis, after which a deletion request can be submitted with targeted legal arguments. In urgent cases involving imminent arrest risk, both can be filed simultaneously, with the deletion request including a request for provisional measures pending review.
