四类犯罪之间的诉讼时效各异。根据《刑法典》第 75 条规定，腐败罪行被列为 不太严重罪行和严重罪行，相应的时效分别为 7 年和 12 年，但贪污罪（第 179.1 条）除外，时效为 2 年。时效期间从实施犯罪之日起算，直至做出一项有 效的法院判决那一刻。被告躲避调查、藏匿不出庭以及出于法律规定的其他原 因的，诉讼时效中止。在这种情况下，时效期间重新开始计算的时间为拘留的 那一刻或被告投案自首的时间。迄今为止，没有任何腐败案件失去时效。
The statute of limitations varies between four levels of classified crimes. Corruption offences are classified as less serious and serious crimes, with a corresponding statute of limitations of 7 years and 12 years, respectively, pursuant to article 75 of the Penal Code, with the exception of embezzlement (section 179.1) which has a two-year statute of limitations. The period of limitations is estimated from the date of commission of a crime up to the moment when a valid court decision is introduced. The statute of limitations is suspended if the defendant conceals himself from the investigation or court and other reasons specified in law. In this case, the limitation period resumes running from the moment of detention or from the time that the defendant surrenders himself. No corruption cases have been barred by the statute of limitations to date.
