Enforcement of criminal judgements

CHAPTER III
Proceeds of fines, confiscated property and provisional measures


Article 110
Proceeds of fines and confiscated property

1. The proceeds of any fines imposed by foreign sentences enforced in Portugal shall revert to the Portuguese State.

2. If however the sentencing State so requires, such proceeds may be rendered to it on the condition that under the same circumstances reciprocity would apply.

3. The provisions of both preceding paragraphs shall apply mutatis mutandis where the enforcement of a Portuguese sentence is transferred to a foreign State.

4. Property confiscated shall revert to the State of enforcement, but may however be remitted to the sentencing State if it so requires, if the property is of special interest to it and if reciprocity is ensured.
