About extradition proceedings in Hungary

Extradition is when one country asks another to hand over a person so they can face criminal charges or other legal matters there. It can happen suddenly and be very frightening.

Who it is for

This service is for anyone held in the country because another country has issued a warrant for their arrest. Often the request comes from another European country through the European Arrest Warrant system, a fast-track process between EU countries. It can also come from any other country.

How it works

Extradition is decided by the courts under strict rules. First, the request is checked to see whether it is lawful and follows the agreements between the countries. Then the case against handing the person over is prepared and argued at a hearing. The person is kept informed at every stage and told what each step means.

What the service includes

  • A first meeting to understand the request and your position.
  • Checking the request for legal problems and possible grounds to challenge it.
  • Preparing the defence, gathering evidence and preparing you for the hearing.
  • Representing you in court.
  • Explaining the decision afterwards and looking at any further options.
  • Working with lawyers in the other country, if needed.

Having a defence prepared gives you a chance to challenge the request and helps you make informed decisions.
