LETTER OF TRANSMITTAL 

THE WHITE HOUSE, September 28, 2006. 

To the Senate of the United States: 

With a view to receiving the advice and consent of the Senate to 

ratification, I transmit herewith the Agreement on Extradition between the United States of America and the European Union (EU), 

signed on June 25, 2003, at Washington, together with 22 bilateral 

instruments that subsequently were signed between the United 

States and European Union Member States in order to implement 

the Agreement with the EU, and an explanatory note that is an integral part of the Agreement. I also transmit, for the information 

of the Senate, the report of the Department of State with respect 

to the Agreement and bilateral instruments. The bilateral instruments with three EU Member States, Estonia, Latvia, and Malta, 

take the form of comprehensive new extradition treaties, and therefore will be submitted individually. 

A parallel agreement with the European Union on mutual legal 

assistance, together with bilateral instruments will be transmitted 

to the Senate separately. These two agreements are the first law 

enforcement agreements concluded between the United States and 

the European Union. Together they serve to modernize and expand 

in important respects the law enforcement relationships between 

the United States and the 25 EU Member States, as well as formalize and strengthen the institutional framework for law enforcement relations between the United States and the European Union 

itself. 

The U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement contains several provisions 

that should improve the scope and operation of bilateral extradition 

treaties in force between the United States and each EU Member 

State. For example, it requires replacing outdated lists of extraditable offenses included in 10 older bilateral treaties with the 

modern ‘‘dual criminality’’ approach, thereby enabling coverage of 

such newer offenses as money laundering. Another important provision ensures that a U.S. extradition request is not disfavored by 

an EU Member State that receives a competing request for the person from another Member State pursuant to the newly created European Arrest Warrant. Finally, the Extradition Agreement simplifies procedural requirements for preparing and transmitting extradition documents, easing and speeding the current process. 

I recommend that the Senate give early and favorable consideration to the Agreement and bilateral instruments. 

GEORGE W. BUSH.

LETTER OF SUBMITTAL 

DEPARTMENT OF STATE, Washington, August 2, 2006. 

The PRESIDENT, 

The White House. 

THE PRESIDENT: I have the honor to submit to you, with a view 

to its transmittal to the Senate for advice and consent to ratification, the Agreement on Extradition between the United States and 

the European Union (EU) (‘‘U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement’’), 

signed on June 25, 2003. Also being submitted together with the 

U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement are 22 bilateral instruments that 

were signed by the United States and EU Member States during 

2004–2006. The bilateral instruments with three EU Member 

States, Estonia, Latvia, and Malta, take the form of comprehensive 

new extradition treaties, and therefore are being submitted individually. I recommend that the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement, including an explanatory note which is an integral part of the Agreement, and the related bilateral instruments be transmitted to the 

Senate for its advice and consent to ratification. The Department 

of Justice joins me in this recommendation. 

Respectfully submitted. 

CONDOLEEZZA RICE.

U.S.-EU EXTRADITION AGREEMENT

OVERVIEW

The U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement selectively amends and supplements existing United States bilateral extradition treaties with 

all Member States of the EU. A counterpart Agreement on Mutual 

Legal Assistance between the United States and the European 

Union is being submitted separately. 

Both U.S.-EU Agreements have their origin in a period of intensive consultation between the United States and officials of the European Union and its then-Belgian and Spanish Presidencies, in 

the aftermath of the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, on ways 

of improving trans-Atlantic cooperation against terrorism. These 

discussions led to the conclusion that modernization of existing bilateral extradition treaties between the United States and EU 

Member States would be a valuable step, because a number of such 

treaties were concluded in the early 20th century and do not reflect 

more recent improvements in extradition practice. By concluding 


erowe on PRODPC61 with HEARING
VI

agreements with the European Union, the United States could 

achieve uniform improvements and expansions in coverage across 

much of Europe. In addition, the U.S.-EU Agreements would enable the strengthening of an emerging institutional relationship on 

law enforcement matters between the United States and the European Union, during a period when the EU is actively harmonizing 

national criminal law procedures and methods of international cooperation. 

Negotiation of the U.S.-EU Agreements were conducted during 

2002 and 2003. The European Union’s delegation was led by officials from Denmark and Greece, which held the EU’s rotating Presidency at that time, and also included officials from the Council 

and Commission. After the U.S.-EU Agreements were signed on 

June 25, 2003, the United States pursued negotiation with each 

Member State of implementing bilateral extradition instruments. 

Initial efforts focused on the fifteen states which were members of 

the European Union at the time the U.S.-EU Agreements were 

signed, and then expanded to the additional ten states that joined 

the EU in 2004. The last of the bilateral instruments were signed 

on June 9, 2006. 

The U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement and bilateral instruments 

are regarded as self-executing treaties under U.S. law, and thus 

will not require implementing legislation for the United States. 

With respect to implementation within the European Union, there 

is greater complexity. The EU, as a Contracting Party, is responsible for implementation of the obligations contained in the U.S.- 

EU Extradition Agreement, even though practical application of 

those obligations would occur at the Member State level. The EU 

Council would monitor implementation, and empower the Presidency as necessary to ensure that Member States comply in all respects. EU Member States, while formally not Contracting Parties 

to the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement, are bound to its provisions 

under internal EU law. The Member States also would have international obligations to the United States under the bilateral instruments. Most Member States, in order to comply with the requirements of their domestic constitutional order, are, like the United 

States, pursuing domestic processes in order to ratify both the 

U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement and the bilateral instrument. A 

number of Member States also secured domestic parliamentary endorsement of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement prior to its signature. 

The following is an article-by-article description of the provisions 

of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement. 

The Preamble underscores that cooperation between the United 

States and European Union Member States serves to protect democratic society and our common values, including the rights of individuals and the rule of law. 

Article 1 (‘‘Object and Purpose’’) states that the United States 

and the EU undertake to provide enhancements to cooperation in 

the context of applicable extradition relations between the United 

States and individual EU Member States, in the manner provided 

in the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement. Since extradition between 

the United States and EU Member States is carried out pursuant 

to bilateral extradition treaties, this phrasing underscores the obliVerDate Aug 31 2005 02:27 May 02, 2008 Jkt 069118 PO 00000 Frm 00006 Fmt 7633 Sfmt 6602 E:\HR\OC\TD014.XXX TD014

gation to supplement and, where necessary, modify these existing 

bilateral treaties to effectuate the terms of the U.S.-EU Extradition 

Agreement. 

Article 2 (‘‘Definitions’’) defines three terms used frequently in 

the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement: ‘‘Contracting Parties,’’ ‘‘Member States,’’ and ‘‘Ministry of Justice.’’ Article 2(1) provides that the Contracting Parties to the U.S.-EU 

Extradition Agreement are the United States and the European 

Union. Under Articles 24 and 38 of the Treaty of European Union, 

the European Union may enter into international agreements in 

the area of criminal judicial cooperation. The Member State then 

holding the rotating Presidency (Denmark, followed by Greece) led 

negotiations for the European Union. At the conclusion of negotiations, Greece was authorized unanimously by the European Council 

to sign the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement on behalf of the European Union. 

Article 3 (‘‘Scope of application’’) (1) provides that the Contracting Parties shall ensure that the provisions of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement are applied in relation to existing bilateral extradition treaties between the United States and EU Member 

States. Thus the EU is responsible as the Party to the Agreement 

for ensuring that Member States make the necessary changes in 

their bilateral extradition relationships with the United States. 

The remainder of Article 3(1) specifies the manner in which existing bilateral extradition treaties between the United States and 

EU Member States are affected by Articles 4–14 of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement. Some of these articles serve to supplement or 

modify the existing provisions in all bilateral extradition treaties 

between the United States and EU Member States, while others 

only affect certain bilateral treaties. There were two main reasons 

for this approach. One was to update a significant number of outmoded extradition treaties in force between the United States and 

EU Member States that were 35 to 100 years old, but not to affect 

more modern treaties that already had similar or identical provisions to those contained in the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement. 

The other reason was that certain provisions contained in the U.S.- 

EU Extradition Agreement facilitated cooperation to a greater extent than some existing bilateral treaties. Article 3 therefore ensures that the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement’s provisions affect 

only those bilateral treaties that would be enhanced thereby. 

Accordingly, paragraph 1(a) provides that Article 4 (applying a 

‘‘dual criminality’’ approach to extraditable offenses) replaces the 

extraditable offense provisions of older treaties in which extradition 

is available only with respect to a list of specified offenses. Paragraph 1(b) provides that Article 5 (streamlining the formal process 

of authenticating and transmitting extradition requests) replaces 

the existing corresponding provisions of all existing treaties. Paragraph 1(c) provides that Article 6 (authorizing direct transmission 

of provisional arrest requests between justice ministries) applies 

only where the existing treaty does not already have such a provision. Paragraph 1(d) provides that Article 7 (authorizing delivery 

of the formal extradition request to the embassy of the requested 

State in the requesting State in order to satisfy the time restrictions for detaining a person provisionally arrested) supplements exVerDate Aug 31 2005 02:27 May 02, 2008 Jkt 069118 PO 00000 Frm 00007 Fmt 7633 Sfmt 6602 E:\HR\OC\TD014.XXX TD014

isting bilateral treaty provisions. Paragraph 1(e) provides that Article 8 (setting forth the procedure for the request and submission 

of supplemental information) applies to the extent the existing 

treaty does not already have such a procedure. Paragraph 1(f) provides that Article 9 (authorizing temporary surrender of persons) 

applies only where the existing treaty does not already have such 

a provision. Paragraph 1(g) provides that Article 10 (setting forth 

the procedure for deciding among competing extradition requests, 

including requests for surrender among European Union Member 

States under the European Arrest Warrant) both replaces the competing request provision of all existing treaties, and supplements 

any existing treaty that does not already have such a provision. 

Paragraph 1(h) provides that Article 11 (authorizing simplified extradition or waiver of extradition) applies only where the existing 

treaty does not already have such a provision. Paragraph 1(i) provides that Article 12 (setting forth the procedure for transit) applies only to the extent that the existing treaty does not already 

have such a procedure. Paragraph 1(j) provides that Article 13 

(governing capital punishment) may be applied in place of the corresponding provision of the existing treaty. Finally, paragraph 1(k) 

provides that Article 14 (setting forth the procedure governing the 

treatment of sensitive information in a request) applies where the 

existing treaty does not already have such a provision. 

The extent to which current individual extradition treaties with 

EU Member States are modified or supplemented by application of 

these substantive provisions is described later in this analysis, on 

a country-by-country basis. 

Article 3(2) elaborates on the EU’s obligation to ensure the application of the provisions of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement by 

its Member States. Specifically, the EU shall ensure that each 

Member State acknowledges the consequential changes to its existing bilateral extradition treaty by entering into a written ‘‘instrument’’ with the United States, that is, a free-standing international 

agreement binding under international law. The EU also must ensure that countries acceding to the European Union after the entry 

into force of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement and having extradition treaties with the United States conclude bilateral instruments with the United States after accession or preferably prior 

thereto. 

Paragraph 3 states that the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement 

shall apply in extradition relations between the United States and 

a new Member State from the date of notification that internal procedures for the bilateral instrument have been completed. 

There are both legal and practical reasons for the requirement of 

a bilateral instrument between the United States and each EU 

Member State. As a matter of international law, the conclusion of 

a bilateral instrument conveys to the United States the sovereign 

consent of the Member State to the changes required in treaties 

concluded and applied at the bilateral level, rather than relying entirely on the effect of EU internal law to ensure application of 

changes in bilateral treaties to which the European Union itself is 

not party. 

In addition, as a practical matter, since extradition treaties are 

litigated and interpreted extensively in national courts, it was seen 


erowe on PRODPC61 with HEARING
IX

as important to delineate in instruments concluded at the bilateral 

level the changes made by the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement in 

these bilateral treaties. The consequential changes are set out either in a revised integrated text of the particular treaty (included 

as an Annex to the instrument) or in provisions placed in the instrument itself specifically delineating the new operative language. 

Conclusion of bilateral instruments thus serves to ease application 

of the revised treaties for practititioners and the judiciary. 

Article 4 (‘‘Extraditable offenses’’) updates the provisions of ten 

older extradition treaties currently in force that use the outmoded 

approach of permitting extradition only with respect to a list of offenses set forth in the treaty. As discussed above concerning Article 

3(1)(a), Article 4 replaces the extraditable offense provisions only in 

such older treaties. The replacement provision corresponds to that 

of many other modern U.S. extradition treaties. 

Paragraph 1 defines an offense as extraditable if the conduct on 

which the offense is based is punishable under the laws in both 

States for a period exceeding one year or more severe penalty, thus 

obviating the need to renegotiate the treaty as additional offenses 

become punishable under the laws in both States; it provides for 

attempt, conspiracy and participation offenses to be considered extraditable; and it provides a minimum sentence remaining to be 

served if extradition is sought for the enforcement of a sentence already imposed. The Parties intended to include the offenses of aiding, abetting, counseling or procuring the commission of an offense, 

as well as being an accessory to an offense, under the broad description of participation. 

Paragraph 2 provides that if extradition is granted for an extraditable offense, it shall also be granted for any other offense specified in the request that is punishable by one year’s imprisonment 

or less, provided that all other requirements for extradition are 

met. 

Paragraph 3 provides flexibility so that a dual-criminality determination is not impeded by the fact that (a) each country may 

place the offense in a different category of offenses, or describe the 

offense by different terminology; (b) use of interstate transportation, use of the mails or other facilities affecting interstate or foreign commerce is a jurisdictional element of a U.S. federal offense 

for which tradition is sought; or (3) in tax, customs duties, currency 

control or import or export control cases, both States do not provide 

for the same kind of tax, duty or control. 

Finally, paragraph 4 provides that extradition shall be granted 

with regard to offenses committed outside the territory of the requesting State if the requested State provides for punishment of 

the conduct in such circumstances, and where it does not, the executive authority of the requested State, in its discretion, may grant 

extradition if all other applicable requirements for extradition are 

met. 

Article 5 (‘‘Transmission and authentication of documents’’) addresses two separate issues. Paragraph 1 provides that transmission of requests for extradition and their supporting documents 

shall be through the diplomatic channel, including in the manner 

provided for in Article 7 (which addresses a special circumstance 

in which a state’s Embassy may receive an extradition request). 


erowe on PRODPC61 with HEARING
X

Paragraph 2 provides that extradition documents bearing the 

seal or certificate of the Ministry of Justice (as defined in Article 

2) or Foreign Ministry of the requesting State are admissible as 

evidence in extradition proceedings. Under the terms of Article 

3(1)(b), this provision replaces the certification and authentication 

provisions of existing bilateral treaties. With respect to extradition 

documents intended for use in extradition proceedings in the 

United States, this procedure simplifies the often burdensome authentication procedure contained in older treaties, in a manner consistent with U.S. law, 18 U.S.C. 3190, and at the same time provides sufficient indicia of authenticity. 

Article 6 (‘‘Transmission of requests for provisional arrest’’) is intended, pursuant to Article 3(1)(c), to supplement the terms of 

some old extradition treaties in which there is currently no provision for provisional arrest requests to be sent directly between the 

U.S. Department of Justice and the foreign Ministry of Justice. Article 6 also permits the use of Interpol as an alternative channel 

for submission of provisional arrest requests. These channels typically are more rapid than the diplomatic channel and, therefore, 

are particularly useful for making provisional arrest requests when 

time is of the essence. 

Article 7 (‘‘Transmission of documents following provisional arrest’’) supplements the terms of existing bilateral extradition treaties between the United States and EU Member State (see Article 

3(1)(d)). It provides that the requesting State may satisfy its obligation to transmit its extradition request and supporting documents 

within the time limit specified following the provisional arrest of 

the fugitive, by submitting them to the embassy of the requested 

State in the requesting State. This approach, already provided for 

in several recent U.S. extradition treaties, e.g. the 2001 treaty with 

Lithuania, codifies existing jurisprudence (see, e.g., United States v. 

Wiebe, 733 F.2d 549 (8th Cir. 1984), and Bozilov v. Seiffert, 983 

F.2d 140 (9th Cir., 1993)). 

For those bilateral treaties lacking such a procedure, Article 8 

(‘‘Supplemental information’’) authorizes a State making an extradition request to furnish supplemental information within a time 

period specified by the requested State, if the request for extradition otherwise would be insufficient to fulfill the treaty’s requirements. Article 8 also specifies that such supplementary information 

may be requested and furnished directly between the ministries of 

justice concerned and need not be transmitted through the diplomatic channel. 

Similarly, where the current bilateral treaty does not already do 

so (see Article 3(1)(f)), Article 9 (‘‘Temporary Surrender’’) provides 

a procedure for temporarily extraditing a person being proceeded 

against or serving a sentence in the requested State. The requesting State shall keep the person so surrendered in custody and return him to the requested State after the conclusion of the proceedings, in accordance with conditions determined by mutual 

agreement of the States. 

Article 10 (‘‘Request for extradition or surrender made by several 

States’’) replaces existing provisions of bilateral extradition treaties 

concerning competing requests for extradition and supplements existing treaties that contain no such provision (see Article 3(1)(g). 


erowe on PRODPC61 with HEARING
XI

Paragraph 1 provides that the executive authority of the requested 

State shall determine to which State to surrender a person whose 

extradition is sought by more than one State. Paragraph 2 provides 

that if an EU Member State receives a request for surrender pursuant to the European Arrest Warrant (‘‘EAW’’) and a request for 

extradition from the United States, the designated competent authority of the EU Member State shall determine to which State to 

surrender the person. Paragraph 3 contains a non-exhaustive list 

of factors to be considered in making a determination under either 

of these scenarios. As a result, this provision makes clear, as a 

matter of treaty law, that a EAW request to one EU Member State 

from another does not take precedence over a competing U.S. extradition request. Since the merits of both requests are judged by the 

paragraph 3 criteria, the provision bestows the same status upon 

a U.S. request for extradition as upon a request for surrender 

under the EAW, for purposes of determining which request shall be 

given priority. 

In connection with Article 10, the Explanatory Note to the U.S.- 

EU Extradition Agreement states that the Contracting Parties 

agree that this provision is not intended to affect the obligations 

of States Parties to the International Criminal Court (ICC) or the 

rights of the United States as a non-Party to the ICC. This reflects 

that the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement does not provide a legal 

basis for the ICC to take jurisdiction over U.S. persons, or for an 

EU Member State to extradite U.S. persons to the ICC. 

Under Article 11 (‘‘Simplified extradition procedures’’), for those 

bilateral treaties that do not already contain such a provision (see 

Article 3(1)(h)), a procedure is established for surrendering the person sought as expeditiously as possible if he agrees to be surrendered to the requesting State without further proceedings. 

Similarly, where the current bilateral treaty does not already do 

so (see Article 3(1)(i)), Article 12 (‘‘Transit’’), paragraphs 1 through 

3, provides a procedure for transit through the territory of one 

State of a person being surrendered to the other State by a third 

State or from the other State to a third State. If the current bilateral extradition treaty contains a transit provision that does not 

specify a procedure for cases of unscheduled landings in the transit 

State, only paragraph 3 is to be applied. Paragraph 2 also authorizes the detention of the person during the period of transit. 

Article 13 (‘‘Capital punishment’’) provides that when an offense 

for which extradition is sought is punishable by death under the 

laws in the requesting State but not under the laws in the requested State, the requested State may grant extradition on condition that the death penalty shall not be imposed or, if for procedural reasons such condition cannot be complied with by the requesting State, on condition that if imposed the death penalty shall 

not be carried out. This formulation is analogous to those of other 

modern U.S. extradition treaties and corresponds to the practice 

that has developed in death penalty cases. In essence, where prosecuting authorities have discretion to not seek the death penalty, 

the requested State may subject extradition to the condition that 

the death penalty not be imposed. However, where, under the procedures applicable in the jurisdiction seeking extradition, this discretion is not absolute, an assurance of non-imposition of the death 


erowe on PRODPC61 with HEARING
XII

penalty cannot be made. In this case, extradition may be subjected 

only to the condition that if the death penalty is imposed, it shall 

not be carried out. Under Article 3(1)(j), this provision may be applied to replace existing provisions on capital punishment or where 

the existing treaty contains no such provision. 

Under Article 14 (‘‘Sensitive information in a request’’), where a 

current bilateral treaty does not already do so (see Article 3(1)(k)), 

a procedure is established whereby a requesting State that is considering the submission of particularly sensitive information in its 

extradition request may consult the requested State to determine 

the extent to which such information can be protected. The requesting State can thereupon determine whether or not it should include 

the information in the request. 

Under Article 15 (‘‘Consultations’’), the United States and the 

European Union, as the Contracting Parties, shall consult for purposes of enabling the most effective use of the U.S.-EU Extradition 

Agreement, including to facilitate resolution of disputes regarding 

its application or interpretation. 

Article 16 (‘‘Temporal application’’) provides that the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement applies to offenses committed before as well as 

after it enters into force. Articles 4 (extraditable offenses) and 9 

(temporary surrender) apply to requests pending in a requested 

State at the time of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement’s entry 

into force; otherwise the Agreement applies only to requests for extradition made after its entry into force. 

Article 17 (‘‘Non-derogation’’), paragraph 1, makes clear that the 

U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement’s provisions do not preclude the assertion of a ground for refusal set forth in the applicable extradition treaty in respect of a matter not governed by the U.S.-EU 

Extradition Agreement. Under paragraph 2, consultations are to 

take place between the requesting and requested States should a 

constitutional principle or judicial decision binding upon the requested State pose an impediment to the fulfillment of the obligation to extradite, and resolution of the matter is not provided for 

in the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement or the applicable bilateral 

extradition treaty. Such situations occasionally arise in extradition 

relations as constitutional jurisprudence evolves in national courts. 

Article 18 (‘‘Future bilateral extradition treaties with Member 

States’’) provides that the United States and EU Member States 

may conclude future bilateral extradition agreements consistent 

with the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement. In the Explanatory Note, 

it is clarified that should measures set forth in the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement create operational difficulties for the United 

States or a Member State, and consultations alone cannot remedy 

the difficulty, a future bilateral agreement with that Member State 

could contain an operationally feasible alternative mechanism that 

satisfies the objectives of the provision in question. 

Article 19 (‘‘Designation and notification’’) provides that the EU 

shall notify the United States of designations pursuant to Article 

2(3) (the authority designated as ‘‘Ministry of Justice’’ for purposes 

of the functions specified in the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement) or 

10(2) (the authority competent to determine priority between a 

U.S. extradition request and a European Arrest Warrant request), 


erowe on PRODPC61 with HEARING
XIII

prior to the exchange of bilateral written instruments between the 

United States and Member States under Article 3(2). 

Under Article 20 (‘‘Territorial application’’), paragraph 1, the 

U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement applies to the United States of 

America, to EU Member States, to territories for whose external relations a Member State is responsible, and to countries for whom 

the member has other duties pertaining to their external relations, 

where agreed upon by exchange of diplomatic note between the EU 

and United States, duly confirmed by the relevant Member State. 

Several EU Member States have such responsibilities; hence, this 

enables the United States and the EU to agree to include such territories or countries within the ambit of the U.S.-EU Extradition 

Agreement. Under paragraph 2, application of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement to such territories or countries may be terminated upon a six-month prior written notice through the diplomatic 

channel, again where confirmed between the United States and the 

Member State concerned. 

Article 21 (‘‘Review’’) provides that the United States and the EU 

will carry out a common review of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement no later than five years after its entry into force, in particular 

for purposes of addressing its practical implementation and the 

consequences of the further development of the European Union in 

relation to the subject matter of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement, including Article 10. 

Article 22 (‘‘Entry into force and termination’’), paragraph 1, provides that the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement shall enter into 

force on the first day following the third month after the date on 

which the United States and the EU have indicated that they have 

completed their internal procedures for this purpose. The exchange 

of instruments of ratification between the United States and the 

European Union shall also indicate that the bilateral instruments 

between the United States and all EU Member States have been 

completed. Paragraph 2 provides that either the United States or 

the EU may terminate the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement by giving written notice to the other, with such termination effective six 

months after the date of such notice. 

Bilateral Instruments between the United States and EU Member 

States implementing the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement 

As noted above, Article 3(2) of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement requires the conclusion of a written instrument between the 

United States and each Member State, indicating the application 

of the Agreement’s provisions in the bilateral extradition relationship. The following discussion delineates the content and character 

of each of these instruments (except for the three that take the 

form of full treaties), and any understandings reached between the 

United States and individual Member States in the course of negotiations. 

The title chosen for the ‘‘written instrument’’ required by Article 

3(2) of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement varies among the Member States. Most Member States preferred to retain the general 

term ‘‘Instrument’’ as used in the U.S.-EU Agreement, but others 

preferred more specific descriptions utilized under their national 

law that also are consistent with the binding character of the inVerDate Aug 31 2005 02:27 May 02, 2008 Jkt 069118 PO 00000 Frm 00013 Fmt 7633 Sfmt 6602 E:\HR\OC\TD014.XXX TD014

strument under international law. Thus, instruments with several 

Member States (e.g. Germany, Czech Republic) are termed supplementary treaties, while other Member States (e.g. Austria and 

Greece) preferred the similar term ‘‘protocol.’’ Still others chose the 

more general ‘‘Agreement’’ (e.g. Netherlands, Poland). 

Each instrument first expresses the agreement of the Parties to 

apply the provisions of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement under 

the terms laid out in Article 3 of that Agreement. The new textual 

provisions to be applied are either specified verbatim in the instrument or set out in an annex containing a revised consolidated text. 

The United States regarded the annex form as preferable from the 

perspective of U.S. courts and practitioners called upon to interpret 

a particular extradition treaty with a Member State. A majority of 

Member States agreed. This approach will ease application of a 

number of treaties, such as the extradition treaty with Spain, 

which previously had been amended piecemeal through three protocols and only now will be available in integrated form. 

Other Member States, however, opted for non-integrated texts, in 

which only the newly operative supplemental or replacement language is set forth and is located in the instrument itself rather 

than in a separate annex. These Member States regarded inclusion 

of a consolidated text as not permitted by their domestic law. The 

consequence of the non-integrated approach is only that reference 

to both the instrument and the pre-existing treaty is necessary in 

order to apply the entire set of obligations between the United 

States and the Member State. 

Each instrument, for reasons of clarity, also recites the provision 

on temporal application from the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement, 

stating that the instrument applies to offenses committed before as 

well as after it enters into force, but, in general, does not apply to 

requests made prior to its entry into force. 

Instruments with several Member States required specification 

as to their geographic scope. These states—Denmark, the Netherlands and the United Kingdom—exercise foreign relations responsibilities for territories or independent countries, including applying the European state’s law enforcement treaties on their behalf. 

However, since the geographic scope of the European Union for 

purposes of criminal justice cooperation does not necessarily extend 

to all these territories and countries, the provisions of the U.S.-EU 

Extradition Agreement would not apply to them unless specifically 

stipulated. Consequently, the relevant bilateral instruments spell 

out whether extradition relations with the United States in respect 

of these territories and countries would continue to be governed by 

the pre-existing treaties in unmodified form. 

Each bilateral instrument also contains a provision on entry into 

force and termination. Entry into force of each instrument occurs 

on the date of entry into force of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement, after exchange of notifications. Eighteen Member States will 

ratify both the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement and the bilateral 

instrument, since they serve to amend bilateral treaties which previously also were ratified. Four Member States regard formal ratification of the U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement as unnecessary under 

their domestic constitutional order, however, as authority in this 

respect has been deemed to have been granted to the EU, but will 


erowe on PRODPC61 with HEARING

ratify the implementing bilateral instrument. Three Member States 

viewed it as unnecessary to ratify even the bilateral instrument. 

Finally, in the event of termination of the U.S.-EU Extradition 

Agreement—a step that would, of course, take place between the 

Parties to this Agreement—the bilateral instrument also shall terminate. Thereupon application of the pre-existing bilateral treaties, 

which are regarded as suspended while the bilateral instruments 

are in force, would resume. The United States and the Member 

States could, however, agree bilaterally to continue to apply some 

or all of the provisions in the bilateral instrument derived from the 

U.S.-EU Extradition Agreement. 

Austria 

The bilateral extradition instrument with Austria was signed on 

July 20, 2005, and is entitled a protocol of the 1998 U.S.-Austria
