"Get the files out. They are slow-walking it," the former US secretary of state told the BBC in Berlin, where she attended the annual World Forum.
The White House insisted that by releasing the files they had done "more for the victims than Democrats ever have".
When asked whether Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor should go before a congressional committee, Hillary Clinton said: "I think everyone should testify who is asked to testify."
Appearing in the files is not an indication of wrongdoing. Andrew has always denied any wrongdoing.
Millions of new files relating to Epstein were made public by the US justice department earlier this month after Congress passed a law requiring the agency to release material related to investigations of Epstein.
The Department of Justice (DoJ) has now said it has released all of the files required by the Epstein Files Transparency Act, but lawmakers have argued the release is insufficient. Kentucky Republican Representative Thomas Massie, who co-wrote the law, called for the DoJ to also release internal memos outlining past decisions on whether to charge Epstein and his associates.
Epstein died in a New York prison cell on 10 August 2019 as he awaited, without the chance of bail, his trial on sex trafficking charges. It came more than a decade after his conviction for soliciting prostitution from a minor, for which he was registered as a sex offender.
Andrew, the former prince, has faced growing pressure from US officials and the family of his prominent accuser Virginia Giuffre to testify before the Oversight Committee about his links to Epstein.
Andrew has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing and reached an out-of-court settlement with Giuffre in 2022 containing no admission of liability. Giuffre died by suicide in 2025.
The Clintons are due to appear before the committee. Bill Clinton will appear on 27 Feb
