虽然间接受贿未被明确定为刑事犯罪，但有人注意到，可通过解释和适用国内相关法律对通过中间人的贿赂进行起诉。此外，尽管瑞士法律并没有明确地将给予外国公职人员不正当好处来实施不构成违反其职责的行为定为刑事犯罪，但这一行为可能被视为符合《公约》的要求，因为它满足了对《公约》第十六条第一款范围所作的解释性说明的条件。
Although indirect bribery is not expressly criminalized, it is noted that theinterpretation and application of the relevant domestic laws provide for theprosecution of bribery committed through intermediaries. Moreover, although Swisslaw does not explicitly criminalize undue advantage granted to foreign publicofficials for conduct that does not constitute acts contrary to their duties, it may beconsidered consistent with the requirements of the Convention in that it fulfils theconditions of the interpretative notes on the scope of article 16, paragraph 1, of theConvention.
