No. CCF deletion removes data from Interpol’s central systems, but member states are not legally obligated to purge records they have already downloaded. Countries like the UK, Germany, and the UAE routinely retain copies in domestic databases even after Interpol deletion. You must separately request erasure under each country’s data protection regime — GDPR in the EU, or equivalent frameworks elsewhere. This secondary process can take 3–6 months per jurisdiction and may require local legal representation to navigate national police data retention policies.
