The public prosecutor shall forward to the competent authority of the executing State a certified copy of the sentencing decision or probation decision and the original or a copy of the certificate referred to in Article 764-6.
He shall also send that authority a translation of the certificate either into the official language or one of the official languages of the executing State, or into one of the official languages of the institutions of the European Union accepted by that State.
