PER CURIAM.
In this appeal filed pursuant to Anders v. California, 386 U.S. 738, 87 S.Ct. 1396, 18 L.Ed.2d 493 (1967), the public defender has suggested several arguments, one of which has merit. The trial court erred in assessing the appellant $658 for the cost of extradition. See Jackson v. State, 668 So. 2d 1082 (Fla. 2d DCA 1996). The cost of extradition is a cost of prosecution, see Pickrel v. State, 609 So. 2d 65 (Fla. 4th DCA 1992), and must be sought in accordance with the statutory procedures as espoused in Reyes v. State, 655 So. 2d 111, 119 (Fla. 2d DCA 1995) (en banc). Accordingly, we strike the cost of extradition and remand this case for the state to seek reimposition of this cost, if desired. Because we see no other error, we affirm the appellant’s judgment and sentence in all other respects.
Cost of extradition stricken; judgment and sentence otherwise affirmed; remanded with instructions.

Thompson v. State, 699 So. 2d 329 (Fla. 2d DCA 1997)…7), he suggests that the trial court erred in imposing a lien upon Thompson for costs of extradition. We strike the lien and affirm Thompson’s sentence in all other respects. The cost of extradition is a cost of prosecution. See Skillman v. State, 696 So. 2d 1341 (Fla. 2d DCA 1997). Costs of prosecution must be expressly requested by a specific agency with adequate supporting documentation. See Reyes v. State, 655 So. 2d 111 (Fla. 2d DCA 1995) (en banc). The trial court must announce such costs on the record…
