Exchange of information upon
request

1. The competent authority of the

requested Party shall provide upon
request by the requesting Party in-
formation for the purposes referred
to in Article 1. Such information
shall be exchanged without regard to
whether the requested Party needs
such information for its own tax pur-
poses or the conduct being investi-
gated would constitute a crime under
the laws of the requested Party if it
had occurred in the territory of the
requested Party. The competent
authority of the requesting Party
shall only make a request for infor-
mation pursuant to this Article when
it is unable to obtain the requested
information by other means, except
where recourse to such means would
give rise to disproportionate diffi-
culty.

om den anmodade parten har behov
av upplysningarna f�r sina egna be-

ning skulle ha utgjort ett brott enligt
den anmodade partens lagstiftning
om det �gt rum inom den anmodade
partens territorium. Den beh�riga
myndigheten i den anmodande par-
ten ska endast beg�ra upplysningar
enligt denna artikel n�r den inte kan
inh�mta upplysningarna genom andra
�tg�rder, utom i de fall d� vidtagandet
av s�dana �tg�rder skulle medf�ra
oproportionerligt stora sv�righeter.

2. If the information in the posses-

sion of the competent authority of
the requested Party is not sufficient
to enable it to comply with the re-
quest for information, the requested
Party shall use at its own discretion
all relevant information gathering
measures necessary to provide the
requesting Party with the informa-
tion requested, notwithstanding that
the requested Party may not need
such information for its own tax pur-
poses.

2. Om de upplysningar som �r till-

g�ngliga f�r den beh�riga myndighe-
ten i den anmodade parten inte r�ck-
er till f�r att tillm�tesg� en beg�ran
om upplysningar, ska den anmodade
parten  utan hinder av att den anmo-
dade parten kanske inte har behov av
upplysningarna f�r sina egna beskatt-
nings�ndam�l  efter eget gott-
finnande vidta alla relevanta �tg�rder
f�r att inh�mta och l�mna de beg�rda
upplysningarna till den anmodande
parten.

3. If specifically requested by the

competent authority of the reques-
ting Party, the competent authority
of the requested Party shall provide
information under this Article, to the
extent allowable under its domestic
laws, in the form of depositions of
witnesses and authenticated copies
of original records.

3. Om den beh�riga myndigheten i

den anmodande parten s�rskilt beg�r
det, ska den beh�riga myndigheten i
den anmodade parten  i den ut-
str�ckning som detta �r till�tet enligt
dess interna lagstiftning  l�mna
upplysningar enligt denna artikel i
form av upptagande av vittnesber�t-
telser och bestyrkta kopior av hand-
lingar.

Further, this Agreement does not

create an obligation for a Party to ob-
tain or provide ownership informa-
tion with respect to publicly traded
companies or public collective in-
vestment schemes, unless such infor-
mation can be obtained without
giving rise to disproportionate diffi-
culties.

het f�r en part att inh�mta eller l�m-
na upplysningar om �garf�rh�llan-
den i bolag vars aktier �r f�rem�l f�r
