How long does a Blue Notice remain active if I do not challenge it?

Blue Notices are subject to periodic review, typically every five years, but they can remain active indefinitely if the issuing country confirms ongoing relevance. Unlike Red Notices, which receive closer scrutiny, Blue Notices often persist unchallenged in Interpol’s system for years. The requesting state has no obligation to notify Interpol when the underlying investigation closes. Without a proactive deletion request to the CCF, subjects may carry the notice long after the criminal matter has become dormant or concluded in their favour.
