How Do I Contact the International Criminal Court

ICC and Eurojust prosecutors issue practical guidelines to document and preserve information on international crimes The International Criminal Court (ICC) investigates and convicts, in justified cases, those accused of the most serious crimes of concern to the international community: genocide, war crimes, crimes against humanity and the crime of aggression. As a court of last instance, it is intended to complement, not replace, national courts. The ICC is governed by an international treaty called the Rome Statute and is the world`s first permanent international criminal court. The ICC can only exercise its jurisdiction if the national court is unable or unwilling to do so. The ICC has jurisdiction only over offences committed after the entry into force of the Statute on 1 July 2002. This database provides access to the ICTY`s public judicial archives from 1994 to 2017. The International Criminal Court (ICC), governed by the Rome Statute, is the first permanent international criminal court based on treaties designed to help end impunity for the perpetrators of the most serious crimes affecting the international community. The ICC is an independent international organization that is not part of the United Nations system. Its seat is located in the town of The Hague in the Netherlands. In 1998, 60 countries signed the Rome Statute after it was opened for signature by the United Nations. The Statute laid the foundation for the establishment of the International Criminal Court in 2002. Its purpose is to identify and prosecute war criminals.
