We study the impact of the Randall-Sundrum setup on the width difference {Delta}{Gamma}{sub s} and the CP-violating phase {phi}{sub s} in the B{sub s}{sup 0}-B{sub s}{sup 0} system. Our calculations are performed in the general framework of an effective theory, based on operator product expansion. The results can thus be used for many new-physics models. We find that the correction to the magnitude of the decay amplitude {Gamma}{sub 12}{sup s} is below 4% for a realistic choice of input parameters. The main modification in the {Delta}{Gamma}{sub s}/{beta}{sub s}-plane is caused by a new CP-violating phase in the mixing amplitude, which allows for a better agreement with the experimental results of the CDF and D0 Collaborations from B{sub s}{sup 0}{yields}J/{psi}{phi} decays. The best-fit value of the CP asymmetry S{sub {psi}{phi}} can be reproduced, while simultaneously the theoretical prediction for the semileptonic CP asymmetry A{sub SL}{sup s} can enter the 1{sigma} range.
