Royal Netherlands Embassy

Washington, April 27, 2001

No. PCdP-2604/01

The Royal Netherlands Embassy presents its compliments to the Department of State and has the honor to refer to the Agreement on Mutual Administrative Assistance for the Proper Application of Customs Law and for the Prevention, Investigation and Combating of Customs Offenses between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the United States of America signed at Washington on 28 October 1996 (hereinafter referred to as ``the Agreement").

The Government of the Kingdom of the Netherlands proposes that, in accordance with Article 20, paragraph 2 of the Agreement, the application of the Agreement shall be extended to the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba, subject to the following.

1. For the Kingdom of the Netherlands, as regards the Netherlands Antilles and as regards Aruba, the term "Customs Administration" shall mean the central administration responsible for the implementation of customs laws, including the assessment of customs duties, charges and other taxes.

2. The application of Article 5 and Article 15, paragraph 6, of the Agreement shall not be extended to the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba.

3. The second sentence of Article 2, paragraph 4, of the Agreement shall apply only to the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba, as the case may be, insofar as the bilateral and multilateral treaties referred to therein apply to those parts of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, respectively.

4. 4. Wat de Nederlandse Antillen en wat Aruba betreft, omvatten nationale wettelijke en administratieve bepalingen in de zin van artikel 16, eerste lid, ook hoofdstuk 3 van de Rijkswet inzake wederzijdse administratieve bijstand in douanezaken, tot het tijdstip waarop de wettelijke en administratieve bepalingen die door de Nederlandse Antillen, respectievelijk Aruba worden aangenomen, in werking treden.

If the foregoing is acceptable to the Government of the United States of America, the Embassy has the further honor to propose that this Note and the Department's reply to that effect shall constitute an Agreement between the Kingdom of the Netherlands and the United States of America which shall be provisionally applied as from the date of the Department's reply and enter into force after the Kingdom of the Netherlands has notified the United States of America in writing through diplomatic channels that its constitutional requirements for the entry into force have been complied with.

The Royal Netherlands Embassy avails itself of this opportunity to reiterate to the Department of State the assurances of its highest consideration.
