1. Extradition treaties are different in every country

2. I've never heard of anyone getting extradited for little things like a lack of 2257 information. Think bigger. Stuff like murder, terrorism, rape, kidnapping, piracy, etc...

3. Generally, to even be considered for extradition, it needs to be a crime in both countries. 2257 is only a US law, whereas things like murder are obviously crimes in every country.

I very much doubt that any country (besides the US) would consider a lack of 2257 information to be a serious crime. If anything, many countries consider giving out 2257 information to be a crime. So I think it's a safe bet that nobody will ever be extradited for lack of 2257 information. The US wouldn't even bother trying because they know they wouldn't succeed, and besides, they would have more than enough Americans to prosecute under 2257 anyways, they wouldn't have the time or man power to bother with non-Americans.
