*790 OPINION AND ORDER
JOHN G. KOELTL, District Judge:000 Promneftstroy (“Petitioner” or “PNS”) submitted an application, pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 1782, for an order authorizing the deposition of Eric Wolf. The petitioner argues a deposition of Wolf is necessary for several legal proceedings in the Netherlands between the petitioner and entities associated with the former OAO Yukos Oil Company (“Yukos Oil”) and its affiliates. For the reasons discussed below, the petitioner’s application is granted.
I.
This application is the latest chapter in a long and complex litigation history related to Yukos Oil, a major Russian conglomerate that went bankrupt about a decade ago. See generally Bos Decl. ¶¶ 13-16. The petitioner is a Russian closed'joint stock company and the owner of Yukos Finance, B.V., á former subsidiary of Yukos Oik Bos Decl. ¶ 11. PNS has brought a proceeding in the Netherlands against two Foundations (Stichtings), Administra-tiekantoor Yukos International (“Foundation I”) and Stichting Administratiekant-oor Financial Performance Holdings (“Foundation II”) (collectively, the “Foundations”), certain directors of the Foundations, GML Limited, which was a Yukos Oil shareholder, and others. See Bos Decl. ¶¶ 3,17,19. In brief, PNS alleges that the defendants were engaged in the improper distribution of Yukos Oil’s assets. It claims they ignored their debtor obligations and improperly distributed approximately $250 million to GML and that the directors of Foundation II withheld 10 percent of that distribution for their own personal profit. See generally Bos Decl. ¶¶ 19-24.
In connection with these claims, PNS seeks to depose Eric Wolf. Wolf has a relationship with Leonid Nevzlin, a former Yukos executive now living in Israel who is the primary shareholder of GML. See Bos Deck ¶ 33. The petitioner claims Wolf has unique and direct personal knowledge of the circumstances and agreements surrounding the contested distribution of funds, while Wolf claims that he possesses no discoverable information.
Originally, PNS sought both to depose Wolf and to subpoena documents, but at a hearing on September 30, 2015, the petitioner withdrew its document subpoena and clarified that it seeks only to depose Wolf. See Sept. 30, 2015 Tr. at 3. PNS further clarified that it seeks to depose Wolf oh only five subjects: (1) the basis for the alleged $250 million advance payment to GML by the Foundation Directors; (2) the basis for the 10 percent of that payment that the petitioner alleges was retained by the Directors; (3) Wolfs awareness of the Foundation’s past payments, if any, or future plans to make such payments; (4) the termination by the Foundations of Director Bruce Misamore related to the $250 million distribution; and (5) a recent global settlement discussion among the various parties as it relates to the other subjects. See id. at 29-31, 43-44; see also Sept. 17, 2015 Tr. at 21.
PNS has been involved in a variety of other suits related to the Yukos bankruptcy in the Netherlands with contested relevance to this action, as recounted by the parties’ opposing experts. See Bos Decl. ¶¶ 25-30; Drop Decl. ¶¶ 4-18. Most immediately, PNS seeks the Wolf deposition for a summary proceeding before a Dutch Court on October 8, 2015 where the $250 million is at issue. Bos Decl. ¶27, Sept. 30, 2015 Tr. at 5-6. There, PNS says it will seek an order against the Foundations to (1) direct the Foundations to repay *791and/or ensure repayment of the allegedly unlawful distributions made by the Dutch Foundations to GML, among others; and (2)order the Foundations not to make any further distributions until such time that the legal questions of the ownership of Yukos Finance BY. has been fully and finally settled in a Dutch court. See Bos Decl. ¶ 27.
II.
Under 28 U.S.C. § 1782, “[t]he district court of the district in which a person resides or is found may order him to give his testimony or statement or to produce a document or other thing for use in a proceeding in a foreign or international tribunal.” 28 U.S.C. § 1782(a). There are three statutory prerequisites for this relief. First, the person from whom discovery is sought must reside or be found in the district of the district court where the application is made; second, the discovery must be for use in a proceeding before a foreign tribunal; and third, the application must be made by the foreign tribunal or “any interested person.” Schmitz v. Bernstein Liebhard & Lifshitz, LLP, 376 F.3d 79, 83 (2d Cir.2004) (international quotation marks and citation omitted); see also In re Application of 000 Promnefstroy for an Order to Conduct Discovery for Use in a Foreign Proceeding, No. M 19-99(RJS), 2009 WL 3335608, at *4 (S.D.N.Y. Oct. 15, 2009) (“PNS I”).
Once these statutory requirements are met, the district court has wide discretion whether to issue discovery orders pursuant to § 1782(a). See id. The district court should weigh four discretionary factors:
(1) Whether the documents or testimony sought are within the foreign tribunal’s jurisdictional reach, and thus accessible absent § 1782 aid;
(2) The nature of the foreign tribunal, the character of the proceedings underway abroad, and the receptivity of the foreign government or the court or agency abroad to U.S. federal-court judicial assistance;
(3) Whether the § 1782 request conceals a[n] attempt to circumvent foreign proof-gathering restrictions or other policies of a foreign country or the United States; and
(4) Whether the subpoena contains unduly intrusive or burdensome requests.
In re Microsoft Corp., 428 F.Supp.2d 188, 192-93 (S.D.N.Y.2006) (citing Intel Corp. v. Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., 542 U.S. 241, 264-65, 124 S.Ct. 2466, 159 L.Ed.2d 355 (2004)); see also PNS I, 2009 WL 3335608, at *4-5. “[District courts must exercise their discretion under § 1782 in light of the twin aims of the statute: ‘providing efficient means of assistance to participants in international litigation in our federal courts and encouraging foreign countries by example to provide similar means of assistance to our courts.’ ” Schmitz, 376 F.3d at 84 (quoting In re Application for an Order Permitting Metallgesellschaft AG to take Discovery, 121 F.3d 77, 79 (2d Cir.1997)).
III.
It is undisputed that the three statutory requirements for Section 1782 are met in this case. It is clear that Wolf resides in the Southern District of New York, that his testimony is sought for use in a foreign proceeding — the summary proceeding on October 8, 2015 in the Netherlands — and that PNS is an “interested” party — indeed, the moving party in the Dutch proceeding. See Sept. 30, 2015 Tr. at 8. Accordingly, PNS has satisfied the technical requirements of § 1782, and the Court proceeds to “consider whether the purposes of § 1782 are best served by approving [PNS’s] application.” PNS I, 2009 WL 3335608, at *5.
*792The first discretionary factor asks the Court to evaluate whether the documents or testimony sought by the application are within the foreign tribunal’s jurisdictional reach, and thus accessible without resort to § 1782. See id.; Microsoft Corp., 428 F.Supp.2d at 192. PNS argues that there exist no means to take or compel Mr. Wolfs testimony in the Netherlands. Wolf argues that the information about which Wolf would testify is within the reach of the Dutch courts, even if Wolf himself is not. PNS seeks to question Wolf, a non-party to the Dutch action, about his knowledge of alleged wrongdoing with regard to the Yukos distributions, and that information resides with him — not in the Netherlands — and therefore this factor weighs in favor of granting the application. See Ahmad Hamad Algosaibi & Bros. Co. v. Standard Chartered Int’l (USA) Ltd., 785 F.Supp.2d 434, 439 (S.D.N.Y.2011).
The second discretionary factor asks the Court to weigh the foreign tribunal’s “receptiveness” to assistance from a United States court. See PNS I, 2009 WL 3335608, at *7. PNS argues that the Dutch legal system permits evidence obtained in foreign proceedings to be introduced by parties in both trial courts and on appeal, see Bos Decl. ¶ 5, and Wolf does not argue that a Dutch court would not accept evidence produced pursuant to § 1782. Rather, Wolf argues only that this factor is essentially neutral in this context. The Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit has instructed district courts to “consider only authoritative proof that a foreign tribunal would reject evidence obtained with the aid of [§ ] 1782.” Euromepa S.A. v. R. Esmerian, Inc., 51 F.3d 1095, 1100 (2d Cir.1995). Such proof is absent here, and therefore this factor weighs in favor of granting the deposition.
The third discretionary factor seeks to identify “[wjhether the § 1782 request conceals a[n] attempt to circumvent foreign proof-gathering restrictions.” Microsoft, 428 F.Supp.2d at 193. PNS argues that there is no means to obtain the information from Wolf in the Netherlands; it has not been sought in the Netherlands; and it has not been denied there. See Sept. 30, 2015 Tr. at 14. Wolf argues extensively that the Dutch courts have ruled that PNS does not have standing in these Yukos-related actions, and, thus has no standing to seek information or relief, and it encloses a number of translated Dutch court rulings to buttress its arguments. See Drop Decl. Exs. 1-7. Wolf also points to PNS I, 2009 WL 3335608, where this court denied a prior § 1782 application by PNS for deposition and documentary discovery. In that case, the court wrote that “[t]he Dutch proceedings reveal that [PNS] repeatedly sought information relating to the bank accounts, legal actions, and business decisions of Yukos Finance and its subsidiaries, but that it was routinely rebuffed by Dutch courts.” PNS I, 2009 WL 3335608, at *9.
PNS, Wolf, and their experts dispute the relevance and legal effect of the other proceedings related to the Yukos bankruptcy that PNS has pressed in the Netherlands. See, e.g., Bos Decl. ¶¶ 25-30; Drop Decl. ¶¶ 4-18. With regard to one particular case (referred to by Wolf as the “Main Judgment”), where a Dutch appeals court ruled that PNS had not become a shareholder of Yukos Finance and could not sue, the Dutch Supreme Court later reversed the case and remanded it. Wolf disputes the scope of the Dutch Supreme Court’s vacatur and claims a lower court judgment against PNS still stands. See Sept. 30, 2015 Tr. at 37-38.
As an initial matter, PNS I does not control the outcome here. There, the very documents that were being sought in a § 1782 application had been sought in the Netherlands and been denied by the courts *793there. See PNS I, 2009 WL 3335608, at *9 (PNS “has repeatedly made entreaties to various Dutch courts to get the same information it now seeks, and it has been rebuffed.”) That is not the case here, where no deposition has been sought from Wolf in the Netherlands, and, indeed, where it would appear to be impossible to secure his testimony in the Netherlands where he does not reside. The PNS I court also found that the requests for documents in the proceeding were overbroad, id., but here PNS has withdrawn its document request.
On the issue of standing, it is not within the Court’s purview to adjudge the scope, relevance, and precedential effect of Dutch cases on later Dutch proceedings. As the Court of Appeals has held, “it is unwise— as well as in tension with the aims of [§ ] 1782 — for district judges to try to glean the accepted practices and attitudes of other nations from what are likely to be conflicting and, perhaps, biased interpretations of foreign law.” Euromepa, 51 F.3d at 1099. While a “ ‘grant of discovery that trenched upon the clearly established procedures of a foreign tribunal would not be within section 1782,’ ” the Court of Appeals does “not read the statute to condone speculative forays into legal territories unfamiliar to federal judges. Such a costly, time-consuming, and inherently unreliable method of deciding section 1782 requests cannot possibly promote the ‘twin aims’ of the statute.” Id. at 1099-100 (quoting John Deere Ltd. v. Sperry Corp., 754 F.2d 132, 135 (3d Cir.1985)) (emphasis in original).
In this case, Wolfs own expert concedes that “[c]ourts in the Netherlands do not preclude submission of any material, so [PNS] may present whatever evidence it likes related to the proceedings on October 8.” Drop Decl. ¶ 11. The Dutch court will address the standing issue at the outset and “will not consider any such evidence unless [PNS] has standing.” Id. That is a determination for the Dutch court to make, and this Court takes no position on the matter. See John Deere Ltd., 754 F.2d at 136 (“To require that a district court undertake a more extensive inquiry into the laws of the foreign jurisdiction would seem to exceed the proper scope of section 1782.”). Accordingly, this discretionary factor weighs in favor of granting the application.
The fourth and final discretionary factor asks the court to be mindful of overly intrusive or burdensome discovery requests. See Microsoft, 428 F.Supp.2d at 193. PNS argues that the application is not unduly intrusive or burdensome because the single deposition it seeks is directly relevant to the claims to be asserted in the Netherlands, is not protected from disclosure by any known privilege or doctrine, and is otherwise not readily obtainable. PNS also proffers several emails, see Basdekis Deck Exs. A-C, to support the argument that Wolf has been involved in the GML distribution and that he has been in regular communication and coordination with GML and the Foundations. The emails suggest Wolf was negotiating the terms of a global settlement on behalf of Yukos shareholders. In one, he claims to “speak on behalf of the beneficiaries. Talking to me [is the] same as talking to Leonid [Nevzlin] and his former partners [in GML], They gave me the mandate.” Basdekis Deck, Ex. A at 1. In another he describes how he “on behalf of the beneficiaries have made our recommendations to [the] Yukos [B]oard.” Basdekis Ex. B at 5. And in a third email, he described to another person how the assets would be distributed. Basdekis Ex. C at 3. Wolf-argues that he is not associated with Yu-kos Finance, the Foundations or even GML and only knows Nevzlin as a client and friend. See Resp’t Eric Wolfs Resp. in Opp’n at 16.
*794At the September 30 hearing, counsel for Wolf raised questions about the provenance and veracity of the emails, see Sept. 30, 2015 Tr. at 40-41, but in supplemental declarations, both sides agreed that the emails in question were filed with the Dutch Court by the defendants in that proceeding in advance of the October 8 proceedings. See Basdekis Supp. Decl. ¶ 18, Bos. Second Supp. Decl. ¶ 14, Drop Supp. Decl. ¶ 2.
In light of the connection suggested by these emails between Wolf and Yukos Finance, the Foundations, and GML, a single deposition of Wolf for the limited purposes described above would not be unduly burdensome. Indeed, part of the deposition is about subjects that the parties allied with Wolf put in issue by submitting the emails to the court in the Netherlands. See In re Application of Gemeinshcaftspraxis Dr. Med. Schottdorf, No. Civ. M19-88 (BSJ), 2006 WL 3844464, at *8 (S.D.N.Y. Dec. 29, 2006) (approving application seeking documents relating to the creation of a single report by consulting firm); In re Servicio Pan Americano de Proteccion, 354 F.Supp.2d 269, 275 (S.D.N.Y.2004) (request not burdensome where petitioner sought “documents related to HSBC’s insurance coverage for a single loss on a single day”).
Accordingly, all four of the discretionary factors counsel in favor of granting PNS’s application.
IV.
For the reasons discussed above, the § 1782 application to depose Eric Wolf is granted. The deposition should take place on or before October 5, 2015.
SO ORDERED.
