ROYAL NETHERLANDS EMBASSY
Stockholm, 8 July 1993
No. Sto-750
The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands presents its compliments to the Ministry
of Foreign Affairs of the Kingdom of Sweden and has the honour to propose that the
application of the European Convention on Extradition of 13 December 1957, in accordance
with article 27, paragraph 4, be extended to the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba, that
the declarations and reservations that apply in relations between the Kingdom of the
Netherlands, in respect of the Kingdom in Europe, and the Kingdom of Sweden shall
also apply in relations between the Kingdom of Sweden and the Kingdom of the Netherlands
in respect of the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba, and that the declaration concerning
articles 6 and 21 as made by the Kingdom of the Netherlands upon ratification of the
Convention on 14 February 1969 and as amended on 14 October 1987 shall apply to the
Netherlands Antilles and Aruba respectively, with regard to the extradition of Netherlands
nationals, only when the European Convention on the Transfer of Sentenced Persons,
concluded in Strasbourg on 21 March 1983, becomes applicable to the Netherlands Antilles
and Aruba respectively.
If this proposal is acceptable to the Government of the Kingdom of Sweden, the Embassy
has the honour further to propose that this Note and the Ministry's affirmative reply,
shall constitute an arrangement as provided for in article 27, paragraph 4, of the
Convention, which shall enter into force on the first day of the third month following
the date on which the Embassy receives the Ministry's reply.
The Embassy of the Kingdom of the Netherlands takes this opportunity to renew to the
Ministry of Foreign Affairs the assurances of its highest consideration.
