Warrant and Red Notice: Are There Any Differences?
According to the Criminal Procedure Code 2015, there are the following differences between a warrant and a red notice:
| Criteria | Warrant | Red Notice |
| Definition | A warrant is an order from the investigative police agency aimed at searching to locate a suspect or accused person who is in the process of evading capture or has fled arrest. | - A Red Notice is an international search request issued by the International Criminal Police Organization, also known as Interpol. - A Red Notice is not an international arrest warrant. - A Red Notice simply informs member countries that this person is wanted based on an arrest warrant or an equivalent judicial decision issued by a country or an international court. |
| Issuing Authority | Investigative Agency (Vietnam) | Issued by the Secretary-General of Interpol upon the request of member countries or an international court based on a valid national arrest warrant. |
| Time of Issuance | Issued when the accused, convicted persons who have been tried, those who have served sentences and been deported, those sentenced to imprisonment, those who are temporarily exempted from prison, or those in the process of postponing imprisonment, escape or leave their place of residence without a known destination. | Issued upon the request of the member country requesting Interpol's assistance in capture and inclusion in the Red Notice list. |
