There are no more obstacles for his transfer, Albegger said adding that it was now up to the court in Salzburg, where Sanader has been kept in detention since mid-December 2010, to decide on further steps in this case.
The Zagreb-based lawyer for Sanader, Goran Suic, said last Friday that Sanader's extradition could be expected this week.
The Croatian USKOK anti-corruption investigating agency has launched several investigations into the former premier on suspicion of his involvement in graft and other white-collar crimes.
However, no indictment has yet been issued.
