ENTRY AND DEPARTURE OF PERSONS AND THEIR BAGGAGE A. General 3.1 In order to facilitate and expedite the clearance of persons entering or departing by air, Contracting States shall adopt border control regulations appropriate to the air transport environment and shall apply them in such a manner as to prevent unnecessary delays. 3.2 In developing procedures aimed at the efficient application of border controls on passengers and crew, Contracting States shall take into account the application of aviation security, border integrity, narcotics control and immigration control measures, where appropriate. 3.3 Contracting States that use Integrated Circuit (IC) chips or other optional machine readable technologies for the representation of personal data, including biometric data, in their travel documents shall make provision whereby the encoded data may be revealed to the holder of the document upon request. 3.4 Contracting States shall not extend the validity of their machine readable travel documents. Note 1.— Specifications for machine readable travel documents (Doc 9303, Series) do not permit alteration of the expiration date and other data in the machine readable zone. Note 2. — States whose national legislation or regulations currently allow for the extension of the period of validity should undertake to amend the appropriate text in a reasonable period. B. Documents required for travel 3.5 No documents other than those provided for in this Chapter shall be required by Contracting States for the entry into and departure from their territories of visitors. 3.6 Contracting States shall not require visitors travelling by air, rightfully holding valid passports recognized by the receiving State and holding valid visas, where appropriate, to present any other document of identity. Note.— It is not the intent of the above provision to discourage Contracting States from accepting other official documents of identity for travel purposes, such as national identity cards, seafarers’ identity documents, alien resident cards and provisional alternative travel identity documents. C. Security of travel documents 3.7 Contracting States shall regularly update security features in new versions of their travel documents, to guard against their misuse and to facilitate detection of cases where such documents have been unlawfully altered, replicated or issued. 3.8 Contracting States shall establish controls on the creation and issuance of travel documents in order to safeguard against the theft of their stocks and the misappropriation of newly issued travel documents. 3.9 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should incorporate biometric data in their machine readable passports, visas and other official travel documents, using one or more optional data storage technologies to supplement the machine readable zone, as specified in Doc 9303, Machine Readable Travel Documents. The required data stored on the integrated circuit chip is the same as that printed on the data page, that is, the data contained in the machine-readable zone plus the digitized photographic image. Fingerprint image(s) and/or iris image(s) are optional biometrics for Contracting States wishing to supplement the facial image with another biometric in the passport. Contracting States incorporating biometric data in their Machine Readable Passports are to store the data in a contactless integrated circuit chip complying with ISO/IEC 14443 and programmed according to the Logical Data Structure as specified by ICAO. D. Travel documents 3.10 Contracting States shall begin issuing only Machine Readable Passports in accordance with the specifications of Doc 9303, Part 1, no later than 1 April 2010. Note.—This provision does not intend to preclude the issuance of non-machine readable passports or temporary travel documents of limited validity in cases of emergency. 3.10.1 For. passports issued after 24 November 2005 and which are not machine readable, Contracting States shall ensure the expiration date falls before 24 November 2015. 2007/70/II. szám Annex 9 — Facilitation Chapter 3 24/11/05 3-2 3.11 Recommended Practice.— When issuing identity documents or visas accepted for travel purposes, Contracting States should issue these in machine readable form, as specified in Doc 9303 (series), Machine Readable Travel Documents. 3.12 When issuing passports that are not machine readable, Contracting States shall ensure that the personal identification and document issuance data and the format of the data page conform to the specifications for the “visual zone” set forth in Doc 9303, Part 1, Machine Readable Passports. The “machine readable zone” area shall be filled with words such as “this passport is not machine readable” or other data to preclude fraudulent insertion of machine readable characters. 3.13 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should establish publicly accessible facilities for the receipt of passport applications and/or for the issuance of passports. 3.14 Contracting States shall establish transparent application procedures for the issuance, renewal or replacement of passports and shall make information describing their requirements available to prospective applicants upon request. 3.14.1 Recommended Practice.— If any fee is charged for the issue or renewal of a passport, the amount of such fee should not exceed the cost of the operation. 3.15 Contracting States shall issue a separate passport to each person, regardless of age. 3.16 Recommended Practice.— When issuing passports for tourism or business travel, Contracting States should normally provide that such passports be valid for a period of at least five years, for an unlimited number of journeys and for travel to all States and territories. Note 1. — In consideration of the limited durability of documents and the changing appearance of the passport holder over time, a validity period of not more than ten years is recommended. Note 2.— Emergency, diplomatic, official and other special purpose passports could have a shorter validity period. E. Exit visas 3.17 Contracting States shall not require exit visas from their own nationals wishing to tour abroad nor from visitors at the end of their stay. 3.18 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should not require exit visas from their resident aliens wishing to tour abroad.

I. Inspection of travel documents 3.31 Contracting States shall assist aircraft operators in the evaluation of travel documents presented by passengers, in order to deter fraud and abuse. 3.32 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should consider making arrangements with other Contracting States to permit the positioning of liaison officers at airports in order to assist aircraft operators to establish the validity and authenticity of the travel documents of embarking persons. 3.33 Aircraft operators shall take necessary precautions at the point of embarkation to ensure that passengers are in possession of the documents prescribed by the States of transit and destination for control purposes as described in this chapter. J. Departure procedures 3.34 Contracting States shall not require income-tax clearance certificates from visitors. 3.35 Contracting States shall not hold the aircraft operator liable in the event of the non-payment of income taxes by any passenger. 3.36 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States, in cooperation with aircraft operators and airport management, should establish as a goal a total time period of 60 minutes in aggregate for the completion of required departure formalities for all passengers requiring not more than normal processing, calculated from the time of the passenger’s presenting himself at the first processing point at the airport (i.e. airline check-in, security control point or other required control point depending on arrangements at the individual airport). Note.— “Required departure formalities” to be completed during the recommended 60 minutes would include airline check-in, aviation security measures and, where applicable, the collection of airport charges and other levies, and outbound border control measures, e.g. passport, quarantine or customs controls. 3.37 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States that require inspection by the public authorities of the travel documents of departing passengers should, in cooperation with airport management, use applicable technology and adopt a multi-channel inspection system, or other means of streaming passengers, in order to expedite such inspections. 3.38 Contracting States shall not normally require the presentation, for border control inspection, of baggage of passengers departing from their territory. K. Entry procedures and responsibilities 3.39 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States, with the cooperation of aircraft operators and airport operators, should establish as a goal the clearance within 45 minutes of disembarkation from the aircraft of all passengers requiring not more than the normal inspection, regardless of aircraft size and scheduled arrival time. 3.40 In order to expedite inspections, Contracting States, with the cooperation of airport operators, shall use applicable technology and adopt a multi-channel immigration inspection system, or other means of streaming passengers, at international airports where the volume of passenger traffic justifies such measures. 3.41 Except in special circumstances, Contracting States shall not require that travel documents or other identity documents be collected from passengers or crew before they arrive at the passport control points. 3.42 The public authorities concerned shall expeditiously accept passengers and crew for examination as to their admissibility into the State. Note.—A passenger or crew member is “accepted for examination” when he makes his first appearance at the arrivals control point after disembarkation, to seek entry into the country concerned, at which time the control officer makes a determination whether he should be admitted or not. This does not include the sighting of travel documents, which may be carried out immediately upon disembarkation. 3.43 The aircraft operator shall be responsible for the custody and care of disembarking passengers and crew members from the time they leave the aircraft until they are accepted for examination as provided in 3.42. 3.44 Recommended Practice.— After such acceptance, the public authorities concerned should be responsible for the custody and care of passengers and crew members until they are admitted or found inadmissible. 2007/70/II. szám Annex 9 — Facilitation Chapter 3 24/11/05 3-4 3.45 The responsibility of an aircraft operator for custody and care of passengers and crew members shall terminate from the moment such persons have been admitted into that State. 3.46 The public authorities of each Contracting State shall seize fraudulent, falsified or counterfeit travel documents.

Under the conditions laid down by the public authorities, aircraft operators may be permitted to open such baggage if necessary to ascertain its owner. 3.65 The aircraft operator shall be freed from the obligation to safeguard baggage not yet cleared by the public authorities, and from liability for import duties and taxes chargeable on such baggage, when it is taken into charge by customs and is under their sole control. N. Identification and entry of crew and other aircraft operators’ personnel 3.66 Contracting States shall establish measures, with the cooperation of aircraft operators and airport operators, to expedite the inspection of crew members and their baggage, as required at departure and upon arrival. 3.67 Contracting States shall facilitate and expedite the process under which aircraft operators based in their territories can apply for Crew Member Certificates (CMCs) for their crew members. Note.— The CMC was developed as a card for use for identification purposes by crew members, leaving the crew licences to serve their primary purpose of attesting to the professional qualifications of the flight crew members. 3.68 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should issue the certificates referred to in 3.67, in the form of machine readable cards in accordance with the specifications in Doc 9303, Part 3 — Size 1 and Size 2 Machine Readable Official Travel Documents. 3.68.1 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should put in place procedures which will enable any crew member issued with a Crew Member Certificate to examine and review the validity of the data held, and to provide for correction if necessary, at no cost to the crew member. 3.69 Recommended Practice.— To the extent that aircraft operators issue crew identity cards, Contracting States should require the production of such identity documents in the format shown in Appendix 7, i.e. in the same layout as the visual zone of the machine readable crew member certificate and having the capability to support machine assisted identity confirmation and document security verification. 3.69.1 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should ensure that a record of each crew member’s certificates and other official identity document issued, suspended or withdrawn, is stored in an electronic database, secure from interference and unauthorized access. All information stored in the electronic database and crew member certificate should be restricted to details which are essential for the purpose of verifying a crew member’s identity. 3.70 Adequate controls shall be placed on the issuance of CMCs and other official crew identity documents to prevent fraud, for example, a background check and certification of employment status of an applicant prior to issuance, controls on blank card stock, and accountability requirements for issuing personnel. 3.71 Contracting States shall waive the visa requirement for arriving crew members presenting CMCs, when arriving in a duty status on an international flight and seeking temporary entry for the period allowed by the receiving State in order to join their next assigned flight in a duty status. 3.71.1 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should waive the visa requirement for arriving crew members presenting CMCs, when arriving on another aircraft operator 2007/70/II. szám Annex 9 — Facilitation Chapter 3 24/11/05 3-6 or another mode of transport and seeking temporary entry for the period allowed by the receiving State in order to join their assigned flight in a duty status. 3.72 Contracting States shall establish measures to provide for the temporary entry without delay into their territories, of technical personnel of foreign aircraft operators operating to or through such territories who are urgently required for the purpose of converting to an airworthy condition any aircraft which is, for technical reasons, unable to continue its journey. Should a State require a guarantee of such persons’ subsistence in, and/or return from, such State, this shall be negotiated without delaying their admission. O. Flight operations and cabin safety inspectors 3.73 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should provide that flight operations and cabin safety inspectors of another Contracting State, when engaged on inspections duties, be treated in the same manner as crew members when proceeding through departure or arrival formalities. 3.74 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should provide their flight operations and cabin safety inspectors with an identity document in the format set forth in Appendix 8. 3.75 Recommended Practice.— Flight operations inspectors and cabin safety inspectors should carry the identity document specified in 3.74, a copy of the inspector’s itinerary issued by the State that employs the inspector, and a valid passport. 3.76 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should extend the privileges of temporary admission, as described in 3.72 for crew members, to flight operations and cabin safety inspectors of another Contracting State, provided that they carry the documents listed in 3.75 (e.g. identity document, itinerary and valid passport, and depart after a normal period of rest. 2007/70/II. szám ANNEX 9 4-1 24/11/05 CHAPTER 4. ENTRY AND DEPARTURE OF CARGO AND OTHER ARTICLES A. General 4.1 In order to facilitate and expedite the release and clearance of goods carried by air, Contracting States shall adopt regulations and procedures appropriate to air cargo operations and shall apply them in such a manner as to prevent unnecessary delays. 4.2 Recommended Practice.— With respect to cargo moving by both air and surface transport under an air waybill, Contracting States should apply the same regulations and procedures and in the same manner as they are applied to cargo moving solely by air. 4.3 When introducing or amending regulations and procedures for the release and clearance of goods carried by air, Contracting States shall consult with aircraft operators and other parties concerned, with the aim of accomplishing the actions set forth in 4.1. 4.4 Where the nature of a consignment could attract the attention of different public authorities, e.g. the customs, veterinary or sanitary controllers, Contracting States shall endeavour to delegate authority for release/clearance to customs or one of the other agencies or, where that is not feasible, take all necessary steps to ensure that clearance is coordinated and, if possible, carried out simultaneously and with a minimum of delay. 4.5 Contracting States shall not normally require the physical examination of cargo to be imported or exported and shall use risk management to determine which goods shall be examined and the extent of that examination. 4.6 Where practicable, in order to improve efficiency, modern screening or examination techniques shall be used to facilitate the physical examination of goods to be imported or exported. 4.7 Recommended Practice.— In connection with international airports, Contracting States should establish and either develop and operate themselves, or permit other parties to develop and operate, free zones and/or customs warehouses and should publish detailed regulations as to the types of operations which may or may not be performed therein. 4.8 In all cases where free-zone facilities and/or customs warehouses are not provided in connection with an international airport but have been provided elsewhere in the same general vicinity, Contracting States shall make arrangements so that air transport can utilize these facilities on the same basis as other means of transport. B. Information required by the public authorities 4.9 Contracting States shall limit their data requirements to only those particulars which are deemed necessary by the public authorities to release or clear imported goods or goods intended for exportation. 4.10 Contracting States shall provide for the collection of statistical data at such times and under such arrangements so that the release of imported goods or those intended for exportation is not delayed thereby. 4.11 Subject to the technological capabilities of the Contracting State, documents for the importation or exportation of goods, including the Cargo Manifest and/or air waybills, shall be accepted when presented in electronic form transmitted to an information system of the public authorities. 4.12 The production and presentation of the Cargo Manifest and the air waybill(s) shall be the responsibility of the aircraft operator or his authorized agent. The production and presentation of the other documents required for the clearance of the goods shall be the responsibility of the declarant. 4.13 Where a Contracting State has requirements for documents such as commercial invoices, declaration forms, import licences and the like, it shall not make it the obligation of the aircraft operator to ensure that these documentary requirements are met nor shall the operator be held responsible, fined or penalized for inaccuracies or omissions of facts shown on such documents unless he is the declarant himself or is acting on his behalf. 4.14 When documents for the importation or exportation of goods are presented in paper form, the format shall be based on the UN layout key, as regards the goods declaration, and on the format of Appendix 3, as regards the Cargo Manifest. When such documents are submitted in electronic form, the format shall be based on international standards for the exchange of electronic information. 4.15 To facilitate electronic data interchange, Contracting States shall encourage all parties concerned, whether public or private, to implement compatible systems and to use the appropriate internationally accepted standards and protocols. 2007/70/II. szám Annex 9 — Facilitation Chapter 4 24/11/05 4-2 4.16 Recommended Practice.— Electronic information systems for the release and clearance of goods should cover their transfer between air and other modes of transport. 4.17 Contracting States that require supporting documents, such as licenses and certificates, for the importation or exportation of certain goods shall publish their requirements and establish convenient procedures for requesting the issue or renewal of such documents. 4.18 Recommended Practice.— Contracting States should, to the greatest extent possible, remove any requirement to manually produce supporting documents and should establish procedures whereby they can be produced by electronic means. 4.19 Contracting States shall not require consular formalities or consular charges or fees in connection with documents required for the release or clearance of goods. C. Release and clearance of export cargo 4.20 Contracting States that require documents for export clearance shall normally limit their requirement to a simplified export declaration. 4.21 Contracting States shall provide for export cargo to be released up to the time of departure of an aircraft. 4.22 Contracting States shall allow goods to be exported, to be presented for clearance at any customs office designated for that purpose. Transfer from that office to the airport from which the goods are to be exported shall be carried out under the procedures laid down in the laws and regulations of the Contracting State concerned. Such procedures shall be as simple as possible. 4.23 Contracting States shall not require evidence of the arrival of exported goods as a matter of course. 4.24 Recommended Practice.— When the public authorities of a Contracting State require goods to be examined, but those goods have already been loaded on a departing aircraft, the aircraft operator or, where appropriate, the operator’s authorized agent, should normally be permitted to provide security to the customs for the return of the goods rather than delay the departure of the aircraft. D. Release and clearance of import cargo 4.25 When scheduling examinations, priority shall be given to the examination of live animals and perishable goods and to other goods which the public authorities accept are urgently required. 4.26 Consignments declared as personal effects and transported as unaccompanied baggage shall be cleared under simplified arrangements. 4.27 Contracting States shall provide for the release or clearance of goods under simplified customs procedures provided that:
