Information to the ICC Prosecutor
International Criminal Court, Office of the Prosecutor
- Which States it covers
- Anyone can send information. Whether the ICC can act depends on where the crimes happened and who committed them.
- Who can file
- Any individual, group or organisation.
- Time limit
- No deadline. This does not mean that the Court's jurisdiction has no time limits. In general it covers only crimes committed after the Rome Statute entered into force for the State concerned, or during the period covered by a declaration accepting the Court's jurisdiction or a Security Council referral.
- Do I need to use national courts first?
- No. Sending information to the Prosecutor does not require you to exhaust national remedies first. Whether a case can go ahead at the ICC depends on complementarity and the other admissibility conditions in Article 17 of the Rome Statute.
- Good to know
- The ICC tries individuals for genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes and aggression. It does not decide complaints against States. Information is sent through OTPLink or by post. The exhaustion, time limit and outcome texts were corrected on the 20th of October 2026.
- What it can achieve
- The Prosecutor analyses the information and may open a preliminary examination or investigation. Any written reply depends on the Office's assessment process. Correspondence screened out as falling outside Article 15 may receive no reply.
- Do I need a lawyer?
- No. The Office of the Prosecutor cannot give legal advice.
