Immunity
Section 5
To the extent that it has been agreed under an international agreement that is binding on Sweden, a person who upon summons in accordance with the agreement has entered Sweden in order to be heard or in another way participate in the investigation of an offence may not :
1. be prosecuted or deprived of his or her liberty or in another way subjected to restrictions to liberty by reason of an act, omission or judgment that relates to the time prior to the entry into Sweden and which, as regards a suspect or accused, is not referred to in the request or summons, or
2. without personal consent be ordered to participate in any investigation than that referred to in the request.
The first paragraph also applies to administrative or other procedures as referred to in Chapter 1, Sections 5 and 6.
Section 6
If the person referred to in Section 5 stays in Sweden for more than fifteen days from when notification was obtained from the authority that summonsed the person that attendance is no longer required, the immunity ceases. This also applies if he or she returns to Sweden after having left Sweden.
Section 7
If the agreement contains a provision that immunity shall be less extensive than stated in Sections 5 and 6, that provision applies instead.

1. The Court may not proceed with a request for surrender or assistance which would require the requested State to act inconsistently with its obligations under international law with respect to the State or diplomatic immunity of a person or property of a third State, unless the Court can first obtain the cooperation of that third State for the waiver of the immunity.
2. The Court may not proceed with a request for surrender which would require the requested State to act inconsistently with its obligations under international agreements pursuant to which the consent of a sending State is required to surrender a person of that State to the Court, unless the Court can first obtain the cooperation of the sending State for the giving of consent for the surrender.
