In brief

The FIA investigates scheduled federal offences, including immigration and human smuggling offences, hawala or hundi, money laundering and certain corruption and banking offences. A call-up notice can lead to significant consequences, and needs a careful response.

We review notices, attend to inquiry stages, apply for pre-arrest bail where justified, and challenge unlawful actions, including those relating to blacklisting and offloading from flights.

Who this is for

People and businesses receiving FIA notices, or facing an FIA inquiry or FIR.
