Extradition proceedings

There are no prescribed fees for extradition proceedings.

However, in accordance with a tripartite agreement between the Scottish Government, Faculty of Advocates and SLAB it was agreed that until prescribed fees are introduced payment could be made at the rates prescribed in respect of conviction or conviction and sentence appeals.

This applies whether the extradition proceedings are at first instance or on appeal.

In such cases you should therefore refer to the Legal Aid Guidance above when assessing any fees in relation to extradition proceedings.
