The statute of limitations is one of the important issues of criminal procedure and criminal law, which was accepted for the first time in Iran after the revolution in Articles 173 and 174 of the Criminal Procedure Code approved in 1999 and the Penal Code approved in 2013. In terms of the different stages of a criminal case, it can be divided as follows: the statute of limitations for complaint and prosecution, the statute of limitations for trial and prosecution of a crime, and the statute of limitations for execution of sentence and punishment. Article 29 of the Statute of the International Criminal Court stipulates that crimes that are within the jurisdiction of the Court shall not be subject to the statute of limitations, which include: genocide, crimes against humanity, war crimes, and crimes of aggression. The statute of limitations in the Islamic Penal Code and the Statutes of the International Criminal Court have differences and similarities that have not been mentioned in the research conducted so far, so the present issue can be of great importance.
