  2. 9. Customs and Immigration - 2 Aircraft in Transit • Export clearance as above if transit flight departs within 24h with all cargo and passengers on board, otherwise follow the On Departure procedure.

Emergency Landings • The pilot in command must contact Customs and the Gardai immediately if an international flight has to land at a non-customs (or immigration) airport. • He/she should prevent passengers or crew from contacting anyone on the ground unless their safety is threatened • All baggage and cargo must remain on the aircraft unless there is a risk of it being damaged (e.g. by fire) if it is left onboard.
