When Australia makes an extradition request, how long does it take to complete the extradition process?
The Attorney-General’s Department liaises with the central authority in the other country about the progress of the request until the person is surrendered and returned to Australia. The timeframe varies significantly in each extradition case and is dependent on the laws and processes for extradition in the other country and any treaty requirements.
