Extradition Treaties — Amendments

Amendment	Year	Description	Impact
Extradition Act Amendment	2003	Significant amendments were made to the Extradition Act, 1962 to align with modern international standards and address emerging challenges in transnational crime. The amendments expanded the definition of extraditable offenses, streamlined procedural requirements, and enhanced provisions for evidence sharing and mutual legal assistance.	These amendments modernized India's extradition framework, making it more effective in dealing with contemporary forms of transnational crime including terrorism, money laundering, and cybercrime. The changes facilitated better international cooperation and reduced procedural delays in extradition processes.
Fugitive Economic Offenders Act	2018	While not a direct amendment to the Extradition Act, this legislation significantly complemented India's extradition framework by providing additional tools to deal with economic fugitives. The Act allows for declaration of individuals as fugitive economic offenders and confiscation of their properties.	This legislation has strengthened India's ability to deal with high-profile economic fugitives by creating financial pressure through asset confiscation, complementing traditional extradition efforts and demonstrating India's commitment to combating economic crimes.
