**1.** The Judges, the Prosecutor and the Registrar shall, together with members of their families forming part of their household and who do not have Netherlands nationality or permanent residence status in the host country, enjoy the privileges and immunities, exemptions and facilities accorded to diplomatic agents, in accordance with international law and in particular under the General Convention and the Vienna Convention. They shall inter alia enjoy:
personal inviolability, including immunity from arrest or detention;
immunity from criminal, civil and administrative jurisdiction in conformity with the Vienna Convention;
inviolability for all papers and documents;
exemption from immigration restrictions, alien registration or national service obligations;
the same facilities in respect of currency or exchange restrictions as are accorded to representatives of foreign governments on temporary official missions;
the same immunities and facilities in respect of their personal baggage as are accorded to diplomatic agents.
**2.** In the event the Tribunal operates a system for the payments of pensions and annuities to former Judges, Prosecutors and Registrars and their dependants, exemption from income tax in the host country shall not apply to such pensions and annuities.
**3.** Privileges and immunities are accorded to the Judges, the Prosecutor and the Registrar in the interest of the Tribunal and not for the personal benefit of individuals themselves. The right and the duty to waive the immunity in any case where it can be waived without prejudice to the purpose for which it is accorded shall lie, as concerns the Judges, with the Tribunal in accordance with its rules; as concerns the Prosecutor and the Registrar, with the Secretary-General in consultation with the President.
