Plain-language summary

Auto-generated summaryWritten by claude-sonnet-5 from the order’s own text · prompt v4 ·

Amends Executive Order 12425 to change the privileges, exemptions, and immunities granted to the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL) in the United States. The amendment removes specific wording in the earlier order that had limited certain benefits to portions of Section 2(d) and had restricted them to matters relating to customs duties and federal internal-revenue importation taxes. By deleting these phrases, the order broadens the scope of the exemptions previously extended to INTERPOL under the 1983 order. The order does not create new offices or assign new duties to federal officials, and it does not specify a deadline for implementation.

Not written or reviewed by a person. Read the full order below for anything you intend to rely on.

Nothing appears in this space without a citation to a court action or a cited precedent. An order with no such record is described as untested, never as likely or unlikely to survive.

Claimed authority

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, and in order to extend the appropriate privileges, exemptions, and immunities upon the International Criminal Police Organization (“INTERPOL”) it is hereby ordered

Quoted from the order as written. Many orders cite nothing more specific than “the Constitution and the laws”; this reproduces what the order claims, not an assessment of whether it holds.

Disposition

Amends: EO 12425, June 6, 1983

Compiled after the fact by the National Archives, so recent orders often have none yet. An empty disposition means no record, not no activity.
