European e-Justice Portal

The Compendium is a tool for drafting requests for judicial cooperation, such as:

European Investigation Order
European Arrest Warrant

It assists practitioners

to fill in the request form, ensuring you enter all the required information
to import the address etc. of the executing competent authority.
to add the logo and official address from your organisation/ authority

The forms are available in all EU languages.

The Compendium has 3 sections for drafting requests:

For the EU countries: Choose from a map or a list to draft a request for judicial cooperation.
For Norway: To draft a mutual legal assistance request to be sent to Norway
For the non-EU countries: To draft a mutual legal assistance request to be sent to a non-EU country.

Managing previous requests

The system enables you to save each request on your local drive and recover it later, e.g. to work further on a previous draft (see the button Open a request from your local drive).

This tool is available here (note: you will leave the e-Justice Portal).
