Can I be arrested in Germany at my home country's request?

✓ Answered · 1 min read · Community · 107 views

Being arrested in Germany at your home country's request usually depends on an international arrest warrant being issued and the offense being considered a crime in both countries. For instance, universal crimes like murder fall under this category. However, an arrest warrant typically won't be issued for situations that aren't considered crimes in Germany. For specific advice on your legal situation, you should consult a legal expert.
