I. POLICY

It is the policy of the \[name of department/agency\] to comply with all
United States Government treaty obligations regarding the arrest,
detention and incarceration of foreign nationals in the \[name of law
enforcement agency or detention facility\].

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

II\. DEFINITIONS/INFORMATION

A. *Arrest* - Any arrest, detention or other commitment to custody which
results in a foreign national being incarcerated for more than a few
hours triggers the consular notification requirements under this
procedure. A brief traffic stop or an arrest which results in a citation
and release at the scene for an infraction or misdemeanor would not
require that consular notification be provided. On the other hand,
requiring a foreign national to accompany a law enforcement officer to a
place of detention may trigger the consular notification requirements,
particularly if the detention lasts for a number of hours or overnight.
The longer a detention continues, the more likely it is that a
reasonable person would conclude that the consular notification
obligation is triggered.

B. *Foreign national* - any person who is not a U.S. citizen. The term
foreign national and alien are used interchangeably. Resident aliens who
have a resident alien registration card, commonly known as a \"green
card,\" are considered foreign nationals for the purposes of consular
notification, as are undocumented (or "illegal") aliens.

C. *Consular officer or consul* - a citizen of a foreign country
employed by a foreign government and authorized to provide assistance on
behalf of that government to that government\'s citizens in a foreign
country. The term \"consul\" should not be confused with \"Counsel\",
which means an attorney authorized to provide legal counsel and advice.

D. *Diplomat* - an official of a foreign government assigned to an
embassy in Washington, D.C. Diplomats may also perform consular
functions, and should be treated the same as a consular officer.

E. "*Special Rule" notification* - arrests or detentions of foreign
nationals from specific countries require notification to the consulate
of the foreign national regardless of whether the foreign national
desires that notification be made. These countries are listed in
Attachment A and can also be found on the U.S. Department of State
Website at
http://travel.state.gov/law/consular/consular_737.html#notification.

F. *"Basic Rule" notification* - if the detained foreign national is a
citizen of a country not on the "Special Rule" list, the requirement is
that the foreign national be informed "without delay" (Definition G) of
the option to have his/her government's consular representatives
notified of the detention. If the detainee requests notification, a
responsible detaining official must ensure that notification is given to
the nearest consulate of the detainee's country, also "without delay."

G. "*Without Delay"­* -- term contained in the Vienna Convention on
Consular Relations generally understood to mean that there should be no
deliberate delay, and that notification should occur as soon as
reasonably possible under the circumstances. Nevertheless, notification
to consular officials should have been made within the first 24 hours of
the detention, and certainly within 72 hours.

\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_\_

III\. PROCEDURE

A. Consular Notification Process

> 1\. The notification process will begin at the time the arrested
> foreign national is booked into the detention facility. The booking
> \[deputy/officer\] who processes the detainee will be responsible for
> implementing the notification process. (See Attachment F for a graphic
> of this process.)
>
> 2\. Determine the foreign national\'s country - in the absence of
> other information, assume it is the country on whose passport or other
> travel document the foreign national travels. Absent any citizenship
> documentation or other evidence to the contrary, accept the foreign
> national's own statement as to nationality.
>
> 3\. Determine whether or not the detainee is a national of a country
> on the "Special Rule" notification list (Attachment A). Once "Special
> Rule" or "Basic Rule" status has been determined, follow the
> procedures outlined below. Whenever possible, notification must be
> made by fax.
>
> a\. "Special Rule" Notification
>
> 1\. Notify the consulate of the foreign national\'s country
> immediately via fax. Notification should occur as soon as is
> reasonably possible under the circumstances, but in no case longer
> than the end of the booking shift. Notification must be made
> regardless of whether the foreign national desires notification. (For
> phone and fax numbers -- see Attachment B; this contact information
> can also be found on the State Department web site at
> http://travel.state.gov/law/consular/consular_745.html).
>
> 2\. Inform the foreign national of the mandatory notification of
> arrest/detention to the consulate of the foreign national\'s country
> (for an example statement -- see Attachment C; this statement, along
> with many foreign language translations, can also be found on the
> State Department Website at
> http://travel.state.gov/law/consular/consular_737.html). Make a note
> of the completed notification in the detainee's case file (or use the
> fax confirmation sheet as the record), per Procedure C below.
>
> 3\. Always take precautions regarding the disclosure of inappropriate
> information to a foreign government, i.e. if a detainee has applied
> for asylum or refugee status. If a consular officer insists that they
> are entitled to information about a detainee that the detainee does
> not want disclosed, please contact your shift commander/supervisor or
> the State Department for guidance.
>
> b\. "Basic Rule" Notification
>
> 1\. Inform the foreign national "without delay" of the entitlement to
> notification of arrest/detention to the consulate of the foreign
> national\'s country (for an example statement -- see Attachment C;
> this statement, along with many foreign language translations, can
> also be found on the State Department Website at
> http://travel.state.gov/law/consular/consular_737.html). Make a record
> of the detainee's decision in the case file per Procedure C below (or
> use sample Attachment C).
>
> 2\. If the foreign national requests notification, contact the nearest
> consulate of the foreign national\'s country "without delay" (for
> phone and fax numbers - see Attachment B). Make a note of the
> completed notification in the subject's case file (or use the fax
> confirmation sheet as the record)

B. Facility Access/Visitation Privileges of Consular Officers

1.  Consular officers and diplomats will be afforded the same access and
    visitation privileges as Attorneys. Consular officers and diplomats
    will be required to adhere to the same visitation guidelines as
    Attorneys.

2.  Consular officers or diplomats must have proper identification to
    gain facility access. Diplomats and consular officers have
    identification cards issued by the Department of State. If the
    authenticity of the identification card is in question, you may call
    the State Department\'s Office of Protocol (phone 202-647-1985
    during business hours, 202-647-7277 outside business hours).
    Examples of these identifying documents can be found in Attachment
    H.

C. Documentation/Recordkeeping

1.  Notification or offer of notification to the foreign national\'s
    consulate will be documented in CJIS \[or other detention facility
    record system\] on the inmate\'s note screen.

2.  Whenever possible, notification must be made by fax. A copy of the
    fax and the fax confirmation receipt must be placed in the inmate\'s
    file. The fax sheet found on the State Department's consular
    notification web site (Attachment D or
    http://www.travel.state.gov/docs/notification_faxsheet2.doc) can be
    used to document and transmit the notification of detention.

3.  If notification must be made by telephone, the booking
    \[deputy/officer\] will note the name and location of the embassy or
    consulate notified, the name of the person to whom the information
    was given, and the date and time notification was made. Telephone
    calls to provide arrest/detention notification to an embassy or
    consulate should be recorded whenever possible and the recording
    preserved as part of the case record.

4.  The booking \[deputy/officer\] will note the offer of "Basic Rule"
    notification, if applicable, indicating the date and time of the
    offer and the detainee\'s response.

5.  In both instances, "Basic Rule" and "Special Rule," the booking
    \[deputy/officer\] will print the note screen and include it in the
    paperwork for the inmate\'s records file.

6.  The \[appropriate supervisor\] will be responsible for ensuring the
    proper notations are made.

D. Death or Serious Injury of a Foreign National

1.  Death or life-threatening injury of a foreign national in the
    custody of the \[name of department/agency\] will be subject to the
    guidelines outlined in \[department/agency standard operating
    procedures\].\"

2.  In addition to the above procedures, notification of the death or
    life-threatening injury must be made immediately to the nearest
    consulate of the national\'s country. The notification will be
    documented in the incident report documenting the death or serious
    injury.

3.  Whenever possible, notification must be made by fax. A copy of the
    fax and the fax confirmation receipt must be placed in the inmate\'s
    file. The fax sheet found on the State Department's consular
    notification web site (Attachment E or
    http://www.travel.state.gov/docs/notification_faxsheet_injury.doc)
    can be used to document and transmit the notification of death or
    serious injury.

^1^ Notification is not mandatory in the case of persons who carry
\"Republic of China\" passports issued by Taiwan. Such persons should be
informed without delay that the nearest office of the Taipei Economic
and Cultural Representative Office (\"TECRO\"), the unofficial entity
representing Taiwan\'s interests in the United States, can be notified
at their request.

^2^ Hong Kong reverted to Chinese sovereignty on July 1, 1997, and is
now officially referred to as the Hong Kong Special Administrative
Region, or "SAR." Under paragraph 3(f)(2) of the March 25, 1997,
U.S.-China Agreement on the Maintenance of the U.S. Consulate General in
the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, U.S. officials are required
to notify Chinese officials of the arrest or detention of the bearers of
Hong Kong passports in the same manner as is required for bearers of
Chinese passports\--*i.e.,* immediately, and in any event within four
days of the arrest or detention.

^3^ United Kingdom includes England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland
and Islands and the British dependencies of Anguilla, British Virgin
Islands, Bermuda, Montserrat, and the Turks and Caicos Islands.  Their
residents carry British passports.

^4^ Although the U.S.S.R. no longer exists, some nationals of its
successor states may still be traveling on its passports. Mandatory
notification should be given to consular officers for all nationals of
such states, including those traveling on old U.S.S.R. passports. The
successor states are listed separately above.

**Diplomatic and Consular Immunity**

International law requires that law enforcement authorities of the
United States extend certain privileges and immunities to members of
foreign diplomatic missions and consular posts. The purpose of these
privileges and immunities is not to benefit individuals but to ensure
the efficient and effective performance of their official missions on
behalf of their governments. Most of these privileges and immunities are
not absolute, and law enforcement officers retain their fundamental
responsibility to protect and police the orderly conduct of persons in
the United States.
