There are three "Twins-countries" I'm missing in our list ...

Denmark, Norway and last but not least ... New Zealand

Yep, interesting question, so I took the time to check my GEMA statements from the last 30 years and I have added the following countries:

Croatia, Finland, South Korea, Norway, Hongkong, Denmark, Brasil

Brasil is a very interesting case.
I know that we have many fans there because I have received many e-mails from them, but I don't find any records about them paying anything to the GEMA
I would say they are way too busy listening to the "Salsa" then to pay the artists for their work  

Also nothing about New Zealand and I have no explanation for that

I'm also surprised, but I found two releases of the Twins that might be pressed in New Zealand on Shake Records / Liberation Records (same label as the australian releases, but different catalog numbers)!

The seller of the vinyls promised that both are NZ-releases ... hope I'll get them in time and see if he tells the truth

Okay, Shake Records / Liberation rings a bell here ;-) so I rechecked my GEMA documents but this time I checked the statements about record-sales. It looks like New Zealand was accounted together with Australia, which means we can add NZ to the list of countries 

(When I said, I can't find anything about NZ I checked my documents about the airplay in foreign countries, which gave a different result)
