Swiss authorities may not address to another State requests which they themselves could not grant under this Act.

The FOJ may decline to make a request if the importance of the offence does not justify the proceedings.
The FOJ shall inform the requesting Swiss authority immediately if the requested State requires a court order for a requested mutual assistance measure.81
