Yellow Notices are subject to periodic review, typically every five years, though the requesting country may renew them indefinitely if the missing person remains unlocated. In parental abduction cases, notices often remain active until the child reaches the age of majority in the requesting jurisdiction — usually 18 years. The Commission for the Control of Files can order deletion if the notice no longer serves its stated purpose, if the underlying circumstances have materially changed, or if continued publication violates Interpol’s data processing rules.
