India can make an extradition request to any country. While India’s treaty partners have treaty
obligations to consider India’s requests, in the absence of a treaty, it is a matter for the foreign
country to consider, in accordance with its domestic laws and procedures, whether the country can
agree to India’s extradition request on the basis of an assurance of reciprocity.
Similarly, any country can make an extradition request to India. The legal basis for Extradition with
States with whom India does not have an Extradition Treaty ("non-Treaty States”) is provided by
Section 3(4) of the Indian Extradition Act, 1962.
India has Extradition Treaties currently in force with the following Countries:
1897
11. Chile Chile
39. UK 1992 UK
* The Extradition Arrangements with Italy and Croatia confine to Crimes related to Illicit Traffic in
Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances owing to the fact that India, Italy and Croatia are parties
to the 1988 UN Convention against Illicit Traffic in Narcotics Drugs and Psychotropic Substances.
