L'Organisation internationale de police criminelle (OIPC), communément abrégée en Interpol, est une organisation internationale créée le 7 septembre 1923 dans le but de promouvoir la coopération policière internationale. Son siège est situé à Lyon, en France. Interpol est connue pour délivrer, entre autres, des notices rouges, documents d'alerte qui une fois publiés permettent d'assurer la traque planétaire de criminels recherchés dans le monde. Ces documents qui contiennent des éléments d'identification et des éléments juridiques sur les individus recherchés sont diffusés à travers 195 pays membres. Ils facilitent grandement le travail des polices nationales en leur permettant d'identifier, de localiser et d'arrêter des individus recherchés sur la base de n'importe quel contrôle à des fins d'extradition. Sa devise est : « Relier les polices pour un monde plus sûr », et sa mission : « Prévenir et combattre la criminalité grâce à une coopération policière internationale renforcée ».
