Republic of Ireland extradition requirements - Australia does have an extradition agreement with Ireland….and the UK:You may be extradited from Ireland to countries with which Ireland has extradition agreements where certain conditions are met.
The most important conditions are:
- You are charged with an offence that is punishable by imprisonment in Ireland and in the other country for at least a year. Or, you are convicted of such an offence, and a sentence of at least four months has been imposed. This principle, that the offence must be the same in the two countries is known as the principle of dual criminality. You may not be extradited if you are going to be held in custody for the purpose of investigation.
- The offence is not a political offence: or one connected with a political offence. The definition of political offence was initially quite wide but has now been narrowed considerably. In general, it does not include terrorist type offences.
