The European Convention on Extradition is a multilateral treaty on extradition drawn in 1957 up by the member states of the Council of Europe and in force between all of them. The convention is also available for signature by non-members which as of January 2012 are Chile, Israel, Russia, South Africa and South Korea. Prior to the introduction of the European Arrest Warrant, the Convention governed extradition between member states of the European Union.

There are 4 additional protocols to the convention that vary the conditions signed up to by individual states.{{Cite web|url=https://www.coe.int/en/web/conventions/full-list/-/conventions/webContent/en_GB/7752573|title=Full list}}
