Czech Republic introduces its own GENDEC / GAR (for non Schengen traffic)

Yes, should be, only czech language link Here They even now removed the exception for airports with permanent police and customs service

In real life I dont file the form often :-) because out of shengen area police must be present personaly at the airport anyway

Is this Czech GAR still current?

I haven’t used it myself as at C172 speeds and my 3 hours flight time limit I can hardly reach outside of Schengen from Prague. The AIC link in post #26 sums it up for Czechia. Here’s the current link for the Border Check Request.

So now we have the UK, Czech Rep, and Belgium

Any reports on how the Czech site is running?

I wonder if one could just send them a copy of the UK GAR? I have often done that in the past when pilot and passenger details were requested by some airport.

Is this requirement still in place?

The URL changed slightly: https://rscpapli.policie.cz/Home/Input?lang=en

I do not think it´s confusing – apart from missing deadline to submit….

That raises more questions than it answers. Most of all, it is not clear whether this constitutes a request or a notification. They intermix both terms. A huge difference between the two.

They also weitencleaely that non-Schengen-flights will only be allowed from “international” airports. I guess the AIP defines that somewhere.

Essentially, the only thing that happened is that some responsibility was shifed from airport operators to the pilots.

The AIC is also confusing on the subject of lead times. They don’t write anything on that (just that the formnhas to be filed before departure or arrival). Further down, they weite something about 8(!) hours for the second try…
