Legal review policy

Legal explainers and country-of-origin summaries are researched by the editorial team and, where a qualified reviewer is available, reviewed by counsel qualified in the relevant jurisdiction. Reviewer names appear only with the reviewer's written consent. We never invent a reviewer name.

High-volatility topics (removal risk, criminalisation, safe-country designations) are re-reviewed at least every six months, or immediately when a significant legal development is verified.

Pages awaiting jurisdiction-qualified review carry a visible label to that effect.
