Extraterritoriality & Extradition

Partial

Active extraterritoriality is not provided, however passive extraterritoriality is provided for crimes committed outside Angola against Angolan nationals if the perpetrator habitually lives in Angola and is found in the territory. Passive extraterritoriality is also provided for crimes committed outside Angola against Angolan nationals by nationals or foreigners when the double criminality requirement is fulfilled, the perpetrator is present in Angola and their extradition cannot be granted. Universal jurisdiction is not provided over SEC-related offences.

Extradition of Angolan citizens is not permitted but Angolan courts have jurisdiction over crimes committed by Angolans outside the territory whose extradition has been denied. Extradition of SEC-related offences is not guaranteed as extradition can be denied for crimes of minor importance. Double criminality is required for extradition.
