According to Sunfilm there is a difference between the German and the UK/US Version of the film. The German one is obviously cut but features one more scene not included in the UK/US version. Unfortunately I can't tell you which one it is.
I just checked this. The additional scene is about 39 minutes in:
When Baxter and Pamela discover the old oil rig has been fenced off, the very next scene shows you how Rob (Dennis Dugan) gets held up by customs officials when he returns to the island, saying "the governor wants to see you". In the British cinema version you next see Rob and Baxter discussing the expired drilling rights at a table outside a bar/restaurant. In the German cinema version, there is an additional scene before that, where you see Baxter entering a customs building, where the officials are going through Rob's suitcases while Rob is standing there stripped naked except his underwear. Baxter uses the opportunity to study Rob's business papers. For some reason, the German version has then cut a few seconds from the next scene (the negotiation at the outside table), more or less going straight to Rob's "my career is in the crapper" and Baxter's "Not necessarily. Maybe we can do a deal."
