Will the country that wants to prosecute me be notified that I filed a Preventive Request?

Yes, Interpol’s procedural rules require the CCF to notify the National Central Bureau of the requesting state when processing a Preventive Request. This notification allows that country to submit observations defending the legitimacy of any intended notice. However, the requesting state is not informed of your current location or contact details — only that a preventive application has been filed. This notification is unavoidable under CCF procedure, but it rarely changes the outcome if the application is well-documented. Strategic timing of the filing can sometimes be adjusted to account for this disclosure.
