Reservation and declaration of 12 December 1980
Reservation
In application of Article 34 in connection with Article 26 of the
Convention the Kingdom makes the reservation that the Convention shall
not be applied to decisions or settlements in respect of maintenance
obligations between persons related collaterally.
Declaration
(...) in application of Article 25 the provisions of the Convention are
extended, in relation to other States making the same declarations to an
official deed drawn up by or before an authority or public official and
directly enforceable in the State of origin insofar as these provisions
can be applied to such deeds.

The Kingdom of the Netherlands consisted of
three parts: the Netherlands, the Netherlands Antilles and Aruba. The
Netherlands Antilles consisted of the islands of Curaçao, Sint Maarten,
Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba.
With effect from 10 October 2010,
the Netherlands Antilles ceased to exist as a part of the Kingdom of the
Netherlands. Since that date, the Kingdom consists of four parts: the
Netherlands, Aruba, Curaçao and Sint Maarten. Curaçao and Sint Maarten
enjoy internal self-government within the Kingdom, as Aruba and, up to
10 October 2010, the Netherlands Antilles do.
These changes
constitute a modification of the internal constitutional relations
within the Kingdom of the Netherlands. The Kingdom of the Netherlands
will accordingly remain the subject of international law with which
agreements are concluded. The modification of the structure of the
Kingdom will therefore not affect the validity of the international
agreements ratified by the Kingdom for the Netherlands Antilles. These
agreements, including any reservations made, will continue to apply to
Curaçao and Sint Maarten.
The other islands that have formed part of
the Netherlands Antilles - Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba - became
part of the Netherlands, thus constituting "the Caribbean part of the
Netherlands". The agreements that applied to the Netherlands Antilles
will also continue to apply to these islands; however, the Government of
the Netherlands will now be responsible for implementing these
agreements.
25 July 2012
The reservation and
declaration [of 12 December 1980] are confirmed for Curaçao, Sint
Maarten and the Caribbean part of the Netherlands (the islands of
Bonaire, Sint Eustatius and Saba). The reservation and declaration
remain valid for the European part of the Netherlands and Aruba.
