Entry procedures and responsibilities
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.
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. 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.
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.
