ANNEX TO THE 1996 CONVENTION

NETHERLANDS

Article 7

The Netherlands Government declares pursuant to Article 7(2) that no extradition or transit of Netherlands nationals shall be granted for the purpose of execution of a sentence or other measure. However, Netherlands nationals may be extradited for the purpose of prosecution insofar as the requesting State offers the guarantee that the person claimed will be transferred back to the Netherlands in order to serve his sentence there if, after extradition, a sentence involving deprivation of liberty, other than a provisional sentence, or a detention order is imposed on him. As regards the Kingdom of the Netherlands, for the purposes of applying this Convention, Netherlands nationals are understood to be persons of Netherlands nationality and foreigners who are integrated into Netherlands society insofar as they may be prosecuted in the Netherlands for offences which form the grounds of the extradition request and insofar as it may reasonably be assumed that such foreigners will not lose their right of residence in the Netherlands as a result of a sentence or measure imposed upon them after extradition.
