OB UPOŠTEVANJU Sporazuma o partnerstvu in sodelovanju med Evropskimi skupnostmi in njihovimi državami članicami na eni strani in Gruzijo na drugi, ki je bil sklenjen 22. aprila 1996 v Luksemburgu;
V ŽELJI, da bi ustvarile skupni zračni prostor (CAA) na podlagi vzajemnega dostopa pogodbenic na trge zračnih prevozov, z enakimi pogoji konkurence in spoštovanjem istih pravil - vključno na področju varnosti, varovanja, upravljanja zračnega prometa, socialnih vidikov in okolja;

OB PRIZNAVANJU, da je zračni prevoz pomemben za spodbujanje trgovine, turizma in naložb;
OB UPOŠTEVANJU Konvencije o mednarodnem civilnem letalstvu, ki je bila na voljo za podpis v Chicagu 7. decembra 1944;
OB STRINJANJU, da je primerno, da pravila CAA temeljijo na ustrezni zakonodaji, veljavni v Evropski uniji, kot je določeno v Prilogi III k temu sporazumu;
OB PRIZNAVANJU, da popolna skladnost s pravili CAA daje pogodbenicam pravico, da uporabijo vse prednosti, vključno z odprtjem dostopa do trgov in doseganja čim večjih koristi za potrošnike, letalske prevoznike in delovno silo obeh pogodbenic;
OB PRIZNAVANJU, da brez prehodnih ureditev, kjer je potrebno, ni mogoče oblikovati CAA in izvajati njegovih pravil;
OB PRIZNAVANJU pomena ustrezne pomoči v zvezi s tem;
V ŽELJI, da bi omogočile letalskim prevoznikom, da ponudijo potujoči javnosti in naročnikom prevozov konkurenčne cene in storitve na odprtih trgih;
V ŽELJI, da bi imeli vsi sektorji industrije zračnih prevozov, vključno z delavci letalskih prevoznikov, koristi od liberaliziranega sporazuma;
V ŽELJI, da bi zagotovile najvišjo stopnjo varnosti in varovanja v mednarodnem zračnem prevozu, ter s potrditvijo zaskrbljenosti nad dejanji ali grožnjami, usmerjenimi proti varnosti zrakoplovov, ki ogrožajo varnost oseb ali premoženja, škodljivo vplivajo na delovanje zračnega prevoza in spodkopavajo zaupanje javnosti v varnost civilnega letalstva;
V ŽELJI, da se letalskim prevoznikom zagotovijo enaki pogoji delovanja s tem, da se njihovim letalskim prevoznikom omogoči poštena in enaka možnost za zagotavljanje dogovorjenih storitev;

V navedenem primeru lahko katera koli od obeh pogodbenic zaprosi za posvetovanje, ki lahko vključuje predstavnike ustreznih pristojnih organov in/ali dodatne informacije, pomembne v zvezi s tem pomislekom; takšne zahteve je treba obravnavati takoj, ko je mogoče. Če vprašanje ostane nerešeno, lahko katera koli pogodbenica vprašanje predstavi Skupnemu odboru, ustanovljenemu na podlagi člena 22 (Skupni odbor) tega sporazuma.

- letalski prevoznik ni v lasti, neposredno ali z večinsko udeležbo, in pod učinkovitim nadzorom držav članic in/ali državljanov držav članic ali drugih držav, naštetih v Prilogi IV, in/ali državljanov teh drugih držav, razen če ni drugače določeno na podlagi člena 6 (Naložbe) tega sporazuma;
(c) letalski prevoznik ne ravna v skladu z zakoni in drugimi predpisi iz člena 7 (Skladnost z zakoni in drugimi predpisi) tega sporazuma; ali

2. Če za preprečitev nadaljnje neskladnosti s točko (c) ali (d) odstavka 1 tega člena ni nujno takojšnje ukrepanje, se pravice, določene s tem členom, uresničujejo le po posvetovanju s pristojnimi organi druge pogodbenice.
3. Nobena od pogodbenic ne uporabi pravic, določenih s tem členom, da bi zavrnila, preklicala, začasno ukinila ali omejila dovoljenja ali odobritve katerih koli letalskih prevoznikov pogodbenice na podlagi tega, da je večinsko lastništvo in/ali učinkovit nadzor navedenega letalskega prevoznika v eni ali več pogodbenicah ECAA ali njihovih državljanov, če takšna pogodbenica ali pogodbenice nudi(-jo) vzajemno obravnavanje.

Ne glede na člena 3 (Dovoljenja) in 5 (Zavrnitev, preklic, začasna ukinitev, omejitev dovoljenj) tega sporazuma se večinsko lastništvo ali učinkovit nadzor gruzijskega letalskega prevoznika s strani držav članic ali njihovih državljanov ali letalskega prevoznika Evropske unije s strani Gruzije ali njenih državljanov dovoli na podlagi predhodnega sklepa Skupnega odbora, ustanovljenega s tem sporazumom v skladu s členom 22(2) (Skupni odbor) tega sporazuma.
S tem sklepom se opredelijo pogoji v zvezi z opravljanjem dogovorjenih storitev v skladu s tem sporazumom ter v zvezi s storitvami med tretjimi državami in pogodbenicama. Določbe člena 22(8) (Skupni odbor) tega sporazuma se za take sklepe ne uporabljajo.

1. Zakoni in drugi predpisi ene pogodbenice, ki se uporabljajo za prihod zrakoplova, ki opravlja zračne prevoze, na njeno ozemlje in odhod z njega, ali za upravljanje in navigacijo zrakoplova, veljajo tudi za letalske prevoznike druge pogodbenice, ki vstopajo na ozemlje prve pogodbenice, so na njem ali odhajajo z njega.
2. Zakoni in drugi predpisi ene pogodbenice, ki se nanašajo na prihod potnikov, posadk ali tovora na zrakoplovu na njeno ozemlje, zadrževanje na njem in odhod z njega (vključno s predpisi v zvezi z vstopom, mejno kontrolo, imigracijo, potnimi listinami, carino, karanteno ali za pošto s poštnimi predpisi), veljajo tudi za potnike, posadke ali tovor letalskih prevoznikov druge pogodbenice, ki vstopajo na ozemlje prve pogodbenice, so na njem ali odhajajo z njega.

1. Pogodbenici potrjujeta, da je njun skupni cilj pošteno in konkurenčno okolje za opravljanje letalskih prevozov. Pogodbenici priznavata, da poštena konkurenčna ravnanja letalskih prevoznikov najpogosteje obstajajo, kadar te letalske družbe delujejo na izključno komercialni podlagi in niso subvencionirane.
2. V okviru tega sporazuma in brez poseganja v katere koli posebne določbe Sporazuma je prepovedana vsaka diskriminacija na podlagi državne pripadnosti.
3. Državna pomoč, ki izkrivlja konkurenco ali grozi, da bo povzročila izkrivljanje konkurence, ker daje prednost določenim podjetjem ali določenim letalskim izdelkom ali storitvam, je nezdružljiva s pravilnim delovanjem tega sporazuma, če lahko vpliva na trgovino med pogodbenicama v letalskem sektorju.
4. Vsa ravnanja, ki so v nasprotju s tem členom, se ocenjujejo po merilih, ki izhajajo iz uporabe pravil o konkurenci, ki se uporabljajo v Evropski uniji, zlasti iz člena 107 Pogodbe o delovanju Evropske unije in interpretativnih instrumentov, ki so jih sprejele institucije Evropske unije.
5. Če ena pogodbenica ugotovi, da na ozemlju druge pogodbenice obstajajo pogoji, zlasti zaradi subvencije, ki bi škodljivo vplivali na poštene in enake možnosti za konkuriranje njenih letalskih prevoznikov, lahko svoja opažanja predloži drugi pogodbenici. Poleg tega lahko zahteva sestanek Skupnega odbora, kot je določeno v členu 22 (Skupni odbor) tega sporazuma. Posvetovanja se začnejo v 30 dneh po prejemu take zahteve za posvetovanje. Če se zadovoljiv sporazum ne sprejme v 30 dneh po začetku posvetovanj, je to razlog za pogodbenico, ki je zahtevala posvetovanja, da zavrne, zadrži, prekliče, začasno ukine ali določi primerne pogoje za dovoljenja zadevnih letalskih prevoznikov v skladu s členom 5 (Zavrnitev, preklic, začasna ukinitev omejitev dovoljenj).
6. Ukrepi na podlagi odstavka 5 tega člena so ustrezni, sorazmerni ter glede obsega uporabe in trajanja omejeni na najnujnejše. Usmerjeni so izključno proti letalskemu prevozniku ali letalskim prevoznikom, ki imajo koristi od subvencije ali pogojev iz tega člena, in ne posegajo v pravico nobene od pogodbenic, da ukrepa na podlagi člena 24 (Zaščitni ukrepi) tega sporazuma.
7. Vsaka pogodbenica lahko zaradi obravnavanja zadeve, povezane s tem členom, po obvestilu druge pogodbenice stopi v stik s pristojnimi vladnimi organi na ozemlju druge pogodbenice, vključno z organi na državni, regionalni ali lokalni ravni.
8. Določbe tega člena se uporabljajo brez poseganja v zakone in druge predpise pogodbenic glede obveznosti javnih storitev na ozemljih pogodbenic.

Predstavniki letalskih prevoznikov
1. Letalski prevozniki vsake pogodbenice imajo pravico, da na ozemlju druge pogodbenice ustanovijo poslovalnice za promocijo in prodajo zračnih prevozov in z njim povezanih dejavnosti.
2. Letalski prevozniki vsake pogodbenice imajo v skladu z zakoni in drugimi predpisi druge pogodbenice v zvezi z vstopom, prebivanjem in zaposlovanjem pravico, da na ozemlje druge pogodbenice pripeljejo in tam obdržijo upravno, prodajno, tehnično, operativno in drugo strokovno osebje, katerega naloga je podpirati zagotavljanje zračnih prevozov.

(i) pravico opravljati svojo lastno zemeljsko oskrbo (»samooskrba«) ali, po svoji izbiri
(ii) pravico izbrati med konkurenčnimi izvajalci, ki oskrbujejo zrakoplove na letališču v celoti ali delno, če je takim izvajalcem dovoljen dostop na trg na podlagi zakonov in drugih predpisov vsake pogodbenice ter če so taki izvajalci prisotni na trgu.
(b) Za naslednje kategorije storitev zemeljske oskrbe, tj. postopki v zvezi s prtljago, postopki na ploščadi, postopki v zvezi z gorivom in oljem, postopki v zvezi s tovorom in pošto, kar zadeva fizične postopke v zvezi s tovorom in pošto med letališkim terminalom in zrakoplovom, so pravice pod točko (a)(i) in (ii) zgoraj zgolj predmet fizičnih in operativnih omejitev v skladu z zakoni in drugimi predpisi, ki se uporabljajo na ozemlju druge pogodbenice. Če take omejitve izključujejo samooskrbo in če ni učinkovite konkurence med izvajalci, ki opravljajo storitve zemeljske oskrbe, so vse take storitve vsem letalskim prevoznikom na voljo na enakovredni in nediskriminatorni osnovi; cene takih storitev ne presegajo njihovih celotnih stroškov, vključno s primerno donosnostjo po amortizaciji.
Prodaja, lokalni izdatki in prenos sredstev
4. Vsak letalski prevoznik vsake pogodbenice lahko prodaja zračne prevoze na ozemlju druge pogodbenice neposredno in/ali, po presoji letalskega prevoznika, prek prodajnih zastopnikov ali drugih posrednikov, ki jih imenuje letalski prevoznik, ali prek interneta. Vsak letalski prevoznik ima pravico do prodaje takega prevoza in vsaka oseba lahko neovirano kupi tak prevoz v lokalni ali kateri koli prosto zamenljivi valuti v skladu z lokalno zakonodajo o valutah.
5. Vsak letalski prevoznik ima pravico, da na zahtevo zamenja in prenese lokalne prihodke z ozemlja druge pogodbenice na svoje matično ozemlje in, razen če je to neskladno s splošno veljavnim zakonom ali predpisom, v državo ali države po lastni izbiri. Pretvorba in prenos sta dovoljena takoj, brez omejitev ali obdavčenja v zvezi z njima, po menjalnem tečaju, ki velja za tekoče transakcije in prenos na datum, ko prevoznik predloži prvi zahtevek za prenos.
6. Letalski prevozniki vsake pogodbenice lahko na ozemlju druge pogodbenice poravnajo lokalne izdatke, ki vključujejo nakup goriva, v lokalni valuti. Letalski prevozniki vsake pogodbenice lahko na ozemlju druge pogodbenice po lastni presoji poravnajo take izdatke v prosto zamenljivih valutah v skladu z lokalnimi predpisi o valutah.
Ureditve o sodelovanju
7. Pri opravljanju ali zagotavljanju storitev v skladu s tem sporazumom lahko vsak letalski prevoznik pogodbenice sodeluje pri ureditvah o sodelovanju glede trženja, kot so sporazumi o skupinski prodaji ali skupnih letih, z:
(a) letalskim prevoznikom ali letalskimi prevozniki pogodbenic; ter
(b) letalskim prevoznikom ali letalskimi prevozniki tretje države; ter
(c) kopenskimi ali pomorskimi prevozniki;
če (i) imajo vsi sodelujoči v takih ureditvah ustrezno pooblastilo za zagotavljanje prevoza na progi in (ii) dogovori izpolnjujejo zahteve v zvezi z varnostjo in konkurenco, ki se običajno uporabljajo pri takšnih dogovorih. Pri prodaji potniškega prometa, ki vključuje skupne lete, se kupca ob prodaji ali v vsakem primeru pred vkrcanjem obvesti o tem, kateri ponudniki prevoza bodo opravljali promet v posameznih sektorjih storitve.
8.(a) Kar zadeva prevoz potnikov, za ponudnike drugih oblik prevoza ne veljajo zakoni in drugi predpisi, ki urejajo zračne prevoze, izključno zato, ker take prevoze zagotavlja letalski prevoznik pod svojim imenom. Ponudniki drugih oblik prevoza se lahko po lastni presoji odločijo glede sodelovanja v skupnih ureditvah. Pri odločanju glede posamezne ureditve lahko ponudniki drugih oblik prevoza med drugim upoštevajo interese potrošnika ter tehnične, ekonomske, prostorske in zmogljivostne omejitve.
(b) Poleg tega in ne glede na ostale določbe tega sporazuma je letalskim prevoznikom in posrednim ponudnikom tovornega prevoza pogodbenic v skladu z veljavnimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi brez omejitev dovoljeno, da v povezavi z zračnimi prevozi uporabijo katero koli drugo obliko površinskega prevoza tovora v kateri koli kraj na ozemlju Gruzije in Evropske unije ali z njega ali v tretjih državah, vključno s prevozom na vsa letališča s carinskim objektom ali z njih in vključno, če je to ustrezno, s pravicami do prevoza tovora pod carinskim nadzorom. Tak tovor ima, bodisi da se premika po površini ali po zraku, dostop do letaliških carinskih postopkov in objektov. Letalski prevozniki se lahko odločijo, da sami izvajajo površinski prevoz ali ga zagotavljajo prek ureditev z drugimi površinskimi prevozniki, vključno s površinskimi prevozniki, ki jih opravljajo drugi letalski prevozniki in posredni ponudniki letalskega tovornega prevoza. Taki večnamenski prevozi tovora se lahko zagotovijo po eni, direktni ceni za kombinirani zračni in površinski prevoz, pod pogojem, da se vkrcevalcev ne zavaja glede dejstev o takem prevozu.
Zakup
9.(a) Letalski prevozniki obeh pogodbenic imajo pravico, da opravljajo dogovorjene storitve z zrakoplovom in posadko, ki ju zakupijo od katerega koli letalskega prevoznika, vključno iz tretjih držav, če vsi udeleženci v teh dogovorih izpolnjujejo pogoje, predpisane v zakonih in drugih predpisih, ki jih pogodbenici običajno uporabljata pri takšnih ureditvah.
(b) Nobena od pogodbenic ne zahteva, da bi letalski prevozniki oddajali svojo opremo v zakup, da bi imeli prometne pravice v skladu s tem sporazumom.
(c) Zakup zrakoplova s posadko (wet-leasing) letalske družbe tretje države s strani gruzijskega letalskega prevoznika ali zakup zrakoplova s posadko letalske družbe tretje države, ki ni navedena v Prilogi IV k temu sporazumu, s strani letalskega prevoznika Evropske unije, da bi izkoristili pravice, predvidene v tem sporazumu, mora ostati izjema ali izpolnjevati začasne potrebe. Predloži se v predhodno odobritev organu, ki je izdal licenco letalskemu prevozniku, ki želi zakupiti letalo s posadko, in pristojnemu organu druge pogodbenice.
Franšizing/trženje blagovne znamke
10. Letalski prevozniki obeh pogodbenic imajo pravico, da sodelujejo pri ureditvah o franšizingu ali trženju blagovne znamke z družbami, vključno z letalskimi prevozniki obeh pogodbenic ali tretjih držav, če imajo letalski prevozniki ustrezno pooblastilo in izpolnjujejo pogoje, predpisane v zakonih in drugih predpisih, ki jih pogodbenici običajno uporabljata pri takšnih ureditvah, zlasti pogoje, ki zahtevajo razkritje identitete letalskega prevoznika, ki opravlja storitev.

1. Zrakoplovi ob prispetju na ozemlje ene pogodbenice, ki jih v mednarodnem zračnem prevozu upravljajo letalski prevozniki druge pogodbenice, njihova običajna oprema, gorivo, maziva, potrošne tehnične zaloge, oprema na letališču, nadomestni deli (vključno z motorji), zaloge na zrakoplovu (ki med drugim vključujejo hrano, pijačo, alkohol, tobak in druge izdelke, namenjene za prodajo ali uporabo potnikov v omejenih količinah med letom) ter druge stvari, namenjene za upravljanje ali servisiranje zrakoplova v mednarodnem zračnem prometu ali ki se uporabljajo izključno v zvezi s tem, so po prihodu na ozemlje ene pogodbenice na podlagi recipročnosti v skladu z ustrezno veljavno zakonodajo oproščeni vseh uvoznih omejitev, davkov na premoženje in dajatev na kapital, carin, trošarin in podobnih pristojbin in bremenitev, ki (a) jih določajo nacionalni ali lokalni organi ali Evropska unija in (b) ne temeljijo na stroških opravljenih storitev, če taka oprema in zaloge ostanejo na zrakoplovu.
2. Oprostitev, na podlagi recipročnosti v skladu z ustrezno veljavno zakonodajo, davkov, dajatev, davščin, pristojbin in bremenitev, navedenih v odstavku 1 tega člena, razen plačila stroškov za opravljene storitve, se nanaša tudi na:
(a) zaloge na zrakoplovu, vnesene na ozemlje ene pogodbenice ali tam dobavljene in natovorjene v razumnih količinah in namenjene za uporabo na zrakoplovu letalskega prevoznika druge pogodbenice, ki opravlja mednarodne zračne prevoze, tudi če se te zaloge uporabljajo na delu poti čez omenjeno ozemlje;
(b) opremo na letališču in nadomestne dele (vključno z motorji), ki so vneseni na ozemlje pogodbenice za servisiranje, vzdrževanje ali popravilo zrakoplova letalskega prevoznika druge pogodbenice, ki se uporablja v mednarodnem zračnem prevozu;
(c) gorivo, maziva in potrošne tehnične zaloge, vnesene na ozemlje ene pogodbenice ali tam dobavljene in namenjene za uporabo na zrakoplovu letalskega prevoznika druge pogodbenice, ki opravlja mednarodne zračne prevoze, tudi če se te zaloge uporabljajo na delu poti čez omenjeno ozemlje;
(d) tiskovine, kot določa carinska zakonodaja vsake pogodbenice, vnesene na ozemlje ene pogodbenice ali tam dobavljene in namenjene za uporabo na čezmejnem letu letalskega prevoznika druge pogodbenice, ki opravlja mednarodne zračne prevoze, tudi če se te zaloge uporabljajo na delu poti čez omenjeno ozemlje, ter
(e) varnostna in varovalna oprema za uporabo na letališčih ali tovornih terminalih.
3. Ne glede na kakršne koli druge nasprotne določbe, nobena določba v tem sporazumu ne preprečuje pogodbenici, da na nediskriminatorni podlagi uvede davke, dajatve, davščine, pristojbine in bremenitve za gorivo, dobavljeno na njenem ozemlju za uporabo na zrakoplovu letalskega prevoznika, ki opravlja prevoze med dvema krajema na njenem ozemlju.
4. Za opremo in zaloge, navedene v odstavkih 1 in 2 tega člena, se lahko zahteva, da so pod nadzorom ali kontrolo ustreznih organov in se ne prenašajo brez plačila ustreznih carin in davkov.
5. Izjeme, določene v tem členu, so na voljo tudi, kadar imajo letalski prevozniki ene pogodbenice pogodbe z drugim letalskim prevoznikom, ki podobno uživa take izjeme druge pogodbenice, za posojilo ali prenos predmetov, določenih v odstavkih 1 in 2 tega člena, na ozemlje druge pogodbenice.
6. Nobena določba v tem sporazumu ne preprečuje pogodbenicama, da ne bi zaračunali davkov, dajatev, davščin, pristojbin in bremenitev za blago, ki se potnikom ne prodaja za porabo na zrakoplovu na delu zračnega prevoza med dvema krajema na njunem ozemlju, kjer je dovoljeno vkrcanje ali izkrcanje.
7. Prtljaga in tovor v neposrednem tranzitu na ozemlju pogodbenice sta oproščena davkov, carin, pristojbin in drugih podobnih bremenitev, ki ne temeljijo na stroških za opravljene storitve.
8. Običajna oprema na zrakoplovu ter tudi material in zaloge, ki so običajno na zrakoplovu letalskega prevoznika letalske družbe katere koli pogodbenice, se lahko raztovorijo na ozemlju druge pogodbenice le, če to odobrijo carinski organi na zadevnem ozemlju. V tem primeru je lahko zanje potreben nadzor navedenih organov, dokler se ponovno ne izvozijo ali drugače odstranijo v skladu s carinskimi predpisi.
9. Določbe tega sporazuma ne vplivajo na področje DDV, razen na prometni davek pri uvozu. Ta sporazum ne vpliva na določbe zadevnih konvencij, ki veljajo med državo članico in Gruzijo ter preprečujejo dvojno obdavčitev dohodkov in kapitala.

1. Vsaka pogodbenica zagotovi, da so pristojbine za uporabnike, ki jih lahko zaračunajo njeni pristojni organi ali telesa letalskim prevoznikom druge pogodbenice za uporabo navigacijskih služb zračnega prometa in kontrolo zračnega prometa, letališča, varovanja v letalstvu ter s tem povezanih objektov in storitev, pravične, primerne, niso nepravično diskriminatorne ter so pravično razdeljene med kategorijami uporabnikov. Te pristojbine lahko izražajo, vendar ne smejo presegati celotnih stroškov pristojnih organov ali teles pri zagotavljanju ustreznega letališča, letaliških varnostnih objektov in storitev na zadevnem letališču ali znotraj sistema zadevnega letališča. Te pristojbine lahko vključujejo primerno donosnost po amortizaciji. Objekti in storitve, za katere so zaračunane pristojbine za uporabnike, se zagotavljajo učinkovito in ekonomično. V vsakem primeru se te pristojbine preučijo pri letalskih prevoznikih druge pogodbenice po pogojih, ki niso manj ugodni od najugodnejših pogojev, ki so na voljo kateremu koli drugemu letalskemu prevozniku v trenutku, ko se pristojbine preučujejo.
2. Pogodbenici spodbujata posvetovanja med pristojnimi organi ali telesi na njunem ozemlju in letalskimi prevozniki in/ali njihovimi predstavniškimi organi, ki uporabljajo storitve in objekte, ter zagotavljata, da pristojni organi ali telesa in letalski prevozniki ali njihovi predstavniški organi izmenjujejo takšne informacije, ki so lahko nujne za omogočanje natančnega pregleda sprejemljivosti pristojbin v skladu z načeli iz odstavkov 1 in 2 tega člena. Pogodbenici zagotavljata, da pristojni organi ali telesa uporabnike dovolj zgodaj obvestijo o vseh predlaganih spremembah pristojbin za uporabnike, da lahko zadevni organi obravnavajo izražena stališča uporabnikov, preden se spremembe uveljavijo.
3. Nobena od pogodbenic pri postopkih reševanja sporov v skladu s členom 23 (Reševanje sporov in arbitraža) tega sporazuma ne krši določbe tega člena, razen če
(a) v razumnem roku ne opravi pregleda pristojbin ali ravnanja, ki je predmet pritožbe druge pogodbenice, ali
(b) če po takem pregledu ne sprejme vseh ukrepov v svoji pristojnosti, da bi popravila pristojbino ali ravnanje, ki ni v skladu s tem členom.

1. Pogodbenici letalskim prevoznikom dovolita prosto določanje cen na podlagi svobodne in poštene konkurence.
2. Pogodbenici ne zahtevata, da se cene sporočajo ali uradno priglasijo.
3. Pristojni organi lahko medsebojno razpravljajo o zadevah, ki vključujejo, vendar niso omejene na cene, ki so lahko nepravične, nerazumne ali diskriminatorne.

1. Vsaka pogodbenica zagotovi drugi pogodbenici statistiko, ki je potrebna v skladu z domačimi zakoni in drugimi predpisi, ter na zahtevo tudi druge razpoložljive statistične podatke, ki so upravičeno potrebni za pregledovanje opravljanja letalskega prevoza.

6. Če pristojni organi ene pogodbenice ukrepajo v skladu z odstavkom 5, o tem ukrepu nemudoma obvestijo pristojne organe druge pogodbenice ter navedejo razloge za ukrep.
7. Če se ukrepi, sprejeti na podlagi odstavka 5 tega člena, ne ustavijo, čeprav zanje ni več razloga, lahko katera koli pogodbenica zadevo naslovi na Skupni odbor.

1. V skladu s prehodnimi določbami iz Priloge II k temu sporazumu pogodbenici ravnata v skladu z določbami zakonodaje Evropske unije o varovanju v letalstvu, opredeljene v delu D Priloge III k temu sporazumu, v skladu s pogoji, določenimi v nadaljevanju.
2. Evropska komisija lahko Gruzijo pregleda v skladu z ustrezno zakonodajo Evropske unije o varovanju v letalstvu, opredeljeno v Prilogi III k temu sporazumu. Pogodbenici vzpostavita potrebni mehanizem za izmenjavo informacij o rezultatih takšnih varnostnih pregledov.
3. Zagotavljanje varnosti za civilne zrakoplove, njihove potnike in posadko je temeljni predpogoj za opravljanje mednarodnega zračnega prometa, zato pogodbenici ponovno potrjujeta svoje obveznosti ena do druge glede zagotavljanja varovanja civilnega letalstva pred dejanji nezakonitega vmešavanja in zlasti svoje obveznosti v skladu s Konvencijo, Konvencijo o kaznivih dejanjih in nekaterih drugih dejanjih, storjenih na letalih, podpisano v Tokiu 14. septembra 1963, Konvencijo o zatiranju nezakonite ugrabitve zrakoplovov, podpisano v Haagu 16. decembra 1970, Konvencijo o zatiranju nezakonitih dejanj zoper varnost civilnega letalstva, podpisano v Montrealu 23. septembra 1971, Protokolom o zatiranju nezakonitih nasilnih dejanj na letališčih za mednarodno civilno letalstvo, podpisanim v Montrealu 24. februarja 1988, in Konvencijo o označevanju plastičnih razstreliv zaradi njihovega odkrivanja, podpisano v Montrealu 1. marca 1991, če sta obe pogodbenici teh konvencij, ter v skladu z vsemi drugimi konvencijami in protokoli v zvezi z varnostjo civilnega letalstva, katerih članici sta obe pogodbenici.
4. Pogodbenici na zahtevo druga drugi zagotovita vso potrebno pomoč, da bi preprečili nezakonite ugrabitve civilnih zrakoplovov in druga nezakonita dejanja zoper varnost takih zrakoplovov, njihovih potnikov in posadke, letališč, navigacijskih naprav ter vsako drugo ogrožanje varnosti civilnega letalstva.
5. Pogodbenici v medsebojnih odnosih ravnata v skladu s standardi varovanja v letalstvu in, če jih uporabljata, v skladu s priporočenimi praksami, ki jih je vzpostavila Mednarodna organizacija za civilno letalstvo (ICAO) kot priloge k Konvenciji, če te določbe o varovanju veljajo za pogodbenici. Pogodbenici zahtevata od letalskih družb, ki so vpisane v njunih registrih ali imajo sedež podjetja ali stalni naslov na njunih ozemljih, ter od upravljavcev letališč na svojih ozemljih, da delujejo v skladu s takimi predpisi o varovanju v letalstvu.
6. Vsaka pogodbenica zagotavlja, da se na njenem ozemlju učinkovito izvajajo ukrepi za varovanje zrakoplovov, za pregled potnikov in ročne prtljage ter primerni pregledi posadke, tovora (vključno z oddano prtljago) in zalog na zrakoplovu pred in med vkrcavanjem ali natovarjanjem, in da se ti ukrepi prilagajajo glede na povečano grožnjo. Pogodbenici soglašata, da se lahko od njunih letalskih prevoznikov zahteva spoštovanje predpisov o varovanju v letalstvu iz odstavka 5 tega člena, ki jih zahteva druga pogodbenica za vstop na ozemlje, izstop z njega ali dokler so zrakoplovi na ozemlju te druge pogodbenice.
7. Pogodbenici pozitivno odobrita vsako zahtevo druge pogodbenice za uvedbo dodatnih varnostnih ukrepov zaradi določene grožnje. Razen kadar v izrednih razmerah to ni mogoče, ena pogodbenica drugo pogodbenico vnaprej obvesti o nameravani uvedbi posebnih varnostnih ukrepov, ki bi imeli znatni finančni ali operativni učinek na storitve zračnih prevozov, zagotovljene na podlagi tega sporazuma. Vsaka od pogodbenic lahko zahteva sestanek Skupnega odbora zaradi razpravljanja o teh varnostnih ukrepih, kot je določeno v členu 22 (Skupni odbor) tega sporazuma.
8. Ob nezakoniti ugrabitvi ali grožnji ugrabitve civilnega zrakoplova ali drugih nezakonitih dejanjih proti varnosti takega zrakoplova, njegovih potnikov in posadke, letališč ali letalskih navigacijskih naprav, pogodbenici pomagata druga drugi, s tem da poskrbita za komuniciranje in druge ustrezne ukrepe, da bi se tak dogodek ali grožnja čim hitreje in varneje končal.
9. Vsaka pogodbenica sprejme vse ukrepe, ki se ji zdijo izvedljivi za zagotovitev, da se zrakoplov, ki je ugrabljen ali izpostavljen dejanjem nezakonitega vmešavanja in je na tleh njenega ozemlja, tam zadrži, razen če je njegov odhod nujen zaradi prevladujoče dolžnosti varovanja človeških življenj. Kjer je to možno, se takšni ukrepi sprejmejo na podlagi skupnih posvetovanj.
10. Ko ima ena pogodbenica razlog za utemeljen sum, da je druga pogodbenica kršila določbe o varovanju v letalstvu iz tega člena, lahko ta pogodbenica zahteva takojšnja posvetovanja z drugo pogodbenico.
11. Brez poseganja v člen 5 (Zavrnitev, preklic, začasna ukinitev, omejitev dovoljenj) tega sporazuma je neuspela sklenitev zadovoljivega sporazuma v petnajstih (15) dneh od datuma take zahteve razlog za zadržanje, preklic, omejitev ali določitev pogojev glede dovoljenja za opravljanje prometa enega ali več letalskih prevoznikov takšne druge pogodbenice.
12. Če to zahteva neposredna in izjemna grožnja, lahko pogodbenica sprejme začasen ukrep pred iztekom petnajstih (15) dni.
13. Vsak ukrep, sprejet v skladu z odstavkom 11 tega člena, se ustavi, ko druga pogodbenica ravna v skladu z vsemi določbami tega člena.

1. V skladu s prehodnimi določbami iz Priloge II k temu sporazumu pogodbenici ravnata v skladu z določbami zakonodaje, opredeljene v delu B Priloge III k temu sporazumu, v skladu s pogoji, določenimi v nadaljevanju.
2. Pogodbenici sodelujeta na področju upravljanja zračnega prometa z namenom razširitve enotnega evropskega neba na Gruzijo, da bi povečali obstoječe varnostne standarde in skupno učinkovitost splošnih standardov zračnega prometa v Evropi, dosegli največje kapacitete in najmanjše zamude ter povečali okoljsko učinkovitost. V ta namen se na datum začetka veljavnosti tega sporazuma Gruzija kot opazovalka vključi v Odbor za enotno evropsko nebo. Skupni odbor je odgovoren za opazovanje in krepitev sodelovanja na področju upravljanja zračnega prometa.
3. Da bi olajšali uporabo zakonodaje glede enotnega evropskega neba na svojih ozemljih:
(a) Gruzija sprejme potrebne ukrepe za prilagoditev svoje institucionalne strukture upravljanja zračnega prometa enotnemu evropskemu nebu, zlasti z zagotovitvijo, da so primerni nacionalni nadzorni organi vsaj funkcijsko neodvisni od ponudnikov navigacijskih služb zračnega prometa; ter
(b) Evropska unija Gruzijo poveže z ustreznimi operativnimi pobudami na področju navigacijskih služb zračnega prometa, zračnega prostora in interoperabilnosti, ki izhajajo iz projekta Enotno evropsko nebo, zlasti z zgodnjo vključitvijo gruzijskih prizadevanj za vzpostavitev funkcionalnih blokov zračnega prostora ali z ustrezno uskladitvijo v okviru SESAR.

1. Pogodbenici priznavata pomembnost varstva okolja pri razvoju in izvajanju letalske politike. Pogodbenici potrjujeta, da je potrebno učinkovito globalno, regionalno, nacionalno in/ali lokalno ukrepanje za zmanjšanje vpliva civilnega letalstva na okolje.
2. V skladu s prehodnimi določbami iz Priloge II k temu sporazumu pogodbenici ravnata v skladu z določbami zakonodaje v zvezi z zračnimi prevozi, opredeljene v delu E Priloge III k temu sporazumu.
3. Pogodbenici priznavata pomembnost sodelovanja in v okviru večstranskih razprav pomembnost preučevanja vplivov letalstva na okolje ter zagotavljanja popolne skladnosti ukrepov za omilitev vplivov s cilji tega sporazuma.
4. Nobena določba v tem sporazumu ne omejuje pristojnosti pristojnih organov pogodbenice za sprejetje vseh ustreznih ukrepov, da bi preprečili ali se drugače spopadli z vplivi na okolje mednarodnega zračnega prevoza, če so taki ukrepi popolnoma v skladu z njunimi pravicami in obveznostmi po mednarodnem pravu ter se izvajajo brez razlikovanja glede na državljanstvo.

1. Določbe tega sporazuma prevladajo nad ustreznimi določbami obstoječih dvostranskih sporazumov med Gruzijo in državami članicami. Vendar se lahko obstoječe prometne pravice, ki izhajajo iz teh dvostranskih sporazumov in niso zajete v tem sporazumu, še naprej uresničujejo, če ni diskriminacije med državami članicami in njihovimi državljani.

5. Ko pogodbenici proučita novo zakonodajo ali spremembo obstoječe zakonodaje na področju zračnih prevozov ali na povezanem področju, navedeno v Prilogi III k temu sporazumu, ena pogodbenica, kot je ustrezno in možno, obvesti drugo pogodbenico. Na zahtevo katere koli od pogodbenic lahko izmenjata mnenja v Skupnem odboru.
6. Vsaka pogodbenica redno in takoj, ko je mogoče, ustrezno obvešča drugo pogodbenico o novo sprejeti zakonodaji ali spremembi obstoječe zakonodaje na področju zračnih prevozov ali na povezanem področju, navedene v Prilogi III k temu sporazumu. Na zahtevo katere koli od pogodbenic se v Skupnem odboru v šestdesetih (60) dneh po zahtevi izmenjajo mnenja o posledicah takšne nove zakonodaje ali spremembe za pravilno delovanje tega sporazuma.
7. Po izmenjavi mnenj iz odstavka 6 tega člena Skupni odbor:

6. Od datuma sklepa iz odstavka 1 te priloge bo Gruzija v veliki meri uporabila pravila za izdajanje operativnih licenc, ki so enakovredna pravilom za izdajanje operativnih licenc iz poglavja II Uredbe (ES) št. 1008/2008 Evropskega parlamenta in Sveta z dne 24. septembra 2008 o skupnih pravilih za opravljanje zračnih prevozov v Skupnosti.

Upon receipt of an application for authorisation from an air carrier of one Party, the competent authorities of the other Party shall recognise any fitness and/or citizenship determination made by the competent authorities of the first Party with respect to that air carrier as if such determination had been made by its own competent authorities, and not inquire further into such matters, except as provided for at Sections a) and b) below:
(a) If, after receipt of an application for authorisation from an air carrier, or after the grant of such authorisation, the competent authorities of the receiving Party have a specific reason for concern that, despite the determination made by the competent authorities of the other Party, the conditions prescribed in Article 3 (Authorisation) of this Agreement for the grant of appropriate authorisations or permissions have not been met, then they are to promptly advise those authorities, giving substantive reasons for their concern. In that event, either Party may seek consultations, which may include representatives of the relevant competent authorities, and/or additional information relevant to this concern, and such requests are to be met as soon as practicable. If the matter remains unresolved, either Party may bring the matter to the Joint Committee set up under Article 22 (Joint Committee) of this Agreement.

2. Unless immediate action is essential to prevent further non-compliance with points (c) or (d) of paragraph 1 of this Article, the rights established by this Article shall be exercised only after consultation with the competent authorities of the other Party.
3. Neither Party shall use its rights established by the present Article to refuse, revoke, suspend or limit authorisations or permissions of any air carriers of a Party on the grounds that majority ownership and/or effective control of that air carrier is vested in one or more Party to the ECAA or their nationals, provided that such Party or Parties to the ECAA offer reciprocal treatment.

Notwithstanding Articles 3 (Authorisation) and 5 (Refusal, Revocation, Suspension, Limitation of Authorisation) of this Agreement, the majority ownership or the effective control of an air carrier of Georgia by Member States or their nationals, or of an air carrier of the European Union by Georgia or its nationals, shall be permitted by virtue of a prior decision of the Joint Committee established by this Agreement in accordance with Article 22 (2) (Joint Committee) of this Agreement.
This decision shall specify the conditions associated with the operation of the agreed services under this Agreement and with the services between third countries and the Parties. The provisions of Article 22 (8) (Joint Committee) of this Agreement shall not apply to this type of decision.

1. While entering, within, or leaving the territory of one Party, the laws and regulations applicable within that territory relating to the admission to or departure from its territory of aircraft engaged in air transport, or to the operation and navigation of aircraft shall be complied with by the other Party's air carriers.
2. While entering, within, or leaving the territory of one Party, the laws and regulations applicable within that territory relating to the admission to or departure from its territory of passengers, crew or cargo on aircraft (including regulations relating to entry, clearance, immigration, passports, customs and quarantine or, in the case of mail, postal regulations) shall be complied with by, or on behalf of, such passengers, crew or cargo of the other Party's air carriers.

1. The Parties acknowledge that it is their joint objective to have a fair and competitive environment for the operation of air services. The Parties recognise that fair competitive practices by air carriers are most likely to occur where these air carriers operate on a fully commercial basis and are not subsidised.
2. Within the scope of this Agreement, and without prejudice to any special provisions contained therein, any discrimination on grounds of nationality shall be prohibited.
3. State aid which distorts or threatens to distort competition by favouring certain undertakings or certain aviation products or services is incompatible with the proper functioning of this Agreement, insofar as it may affect trade between the Parties in the aviation sector.
4. Any practices contrary to this Article shall be assessed on the basis of criteria arising from the application of the competition rules applicable in the European Union, in particular from Article 107 of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union and interpretative instruments adopted by the European Union institutions.
5. If one Party finds that conditions exist in the territory of the other Party, in particular due to a subsidy, which would adversely affect the fair and equal opportunity of its air carriers to compete, it may submit observations to the other Party. Furthermore, it may request a meeting of the Joint Committee, as provided for in Article 22 (Joint Committee) of this Agreement. From the receipt of such a request consultations shall start within 30 days. Failure to reach a satisfactory agreement within 30 days from the start of consultations shall constitute grounds for the Party that requested the consultations to take action to refuse, withhold, revoke, suspend or impose appropriate conditions on the authorisations of the air carrier(s) concerned, consistent with Article 5 (Refusal, Revocation, Suspension or Limitation of Authorisation) of this Agreement.
6. The actions, referred to in paragraph 5 of this Article, shall be appropriate, proportionate and restricted with regard to scope and duration to what is strictly necessary. They shall be exclusively directed towards the air carrier or air carriers benefiting from a subsidy or the conditions referred to in this Article, and shall be without prejudice to the right of either Party to take action under Article 24 (Safeguard measures) of this Agreement.
7. Each Party, upon notification to the other Party, may approach responsible government entities in the territory of the other Party including entities at the state, provincial or local level to discuss matters relating to this Article.
8. The provisions of this Article shall apply without prejudice to the Parties' laws and regulations regarding public service obligations in the territories of the Parties.

Ground Handling
3.(a) Without prejudice to point (b) below, each air carrier shall have in relation to groundhandling in the territory of the other Party:
(i) the right to perform its own groundhandling ("self-handling") or, at its option
(ii) the right to select among competing suppliers that provide groundhandling services in whole or in part where such suppliers are allowed market access on the basis of the laws and regulations of each Party, and where such suppliers are present in the market.
(b) For the following categories of groundhandling services, i.e. baggage handling, ramp handling, fuel and oil handling, freight and mail handling as regards the physical handling of freight and mail between the air terminal and the aircraft, the rights under point (a) (i) and (ii) shall be subject only to physical or operational constraints according to the laws and regulations applicable in the territory of the other Party. Where such constraints preclude self-handling and where there is no effective competition between suppliers that provide groundhandling services, all such services shall be available on both an equal and non discriminatory basis to all air carriers; prices of such services shall not exceed their full cost including a reasonable return on assets, after depreciation.
Sales, Local Expenses, and Transfer of Funds

(c) any surface, land or maritime carriers;
provided that (i) all participants in such arrangements hold the appropriate underlying route authority and (ii) the arrangements meet the requirements relating to safety and competition normally applied to such arrangements. In respect of passenger transport sold involving code-shares, the purchaser shall be informed at the point of sale, or in any case before boarding, which transportation providers will operate each sector of the service.
8.(a) In relation to the transport of passengers, surface transportation providers shall not be subject to laws and regulations governing air transport on the sole basis that such surface transportation is held out by an air carrier under its own name. Surface transportation providers have the discretion to decide whether to enter into cooperative arrangements. In deciding on any particular arrangement, surface transportation providers may consider, among other things, consumer interests and technical, economic, space, and capacity constraints.
(b) Moreover, and notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, air carriers and indirect providers of cargo transportation of the Parties shall be permitted, without restriction, to employ in connection with air transport any surface transportation for cargo to or from any points in the territories of Georgia and the European Union, or in third countries, including transport to and from all airports with customs facilities, and including, where applicable, the right[s] to transport cargo in bond under applicable laws and regulations. Such cargo, whether moving by surface or by air, shall have access to airport customs processing and facilities. Air carriers may elect to perform their own surface transportation or to provide it through arrangements with other surface carriers, including surface transportation operated by other air carriers and indirect providers of cargo air transport. Such intermodal cargo services may be offered at a single, through price for the air and surface transportation combined, provided that shippers are not misled as to the facts concerning such transportation.

In such case, they may be placed under the supervision of the said authorities up to such time as they are re-exported or otherwise disposed of in accordance with customs regulations.
9. The stipulations of this Agreement shall not affect the field of VAT, with the exception of turnover tax on imports. The provisions of the respective conventions in force between a Member State and Georgia for the avoidance of double taxation on income and on capital remain unaffected by this Agreement.

1. Each Party shall ensure that user charges that may be imposed by its competent charging authorities or bodies on the air carriers of the other Party for the use of air navigation and air traffic control, airport, aviation security and related facilities and services shall be just, reasonable, not unjustly discriminatory, and equitably apportioned among categories of users. These charges may reflect, but shall not exceed, the full cost to the competent charging authorities or bodies of providing the appropriate airport and aviation security facilities and services at that airport or within that airport's system. These charges may include a reasonable return on assets, after depreciation. Facilities and services for which user charges are made shall be provided on an efficient and economic basis.

(b) give rise to serious concerns - established through an inspection referred to in paragraph 3 of this Article - that an aircraft or the operation of an aircraft does not comply with the minimum standards established pursuant to the Convention or the legislation specified in Part C of Annex III to this Agreement, whichever is applicable, or
(c) give rise to serious concerns that there is a lack of effective maintenance and administration of minimum standards established pursuant to the Convention or the legislation specified in Part C of Annex III to this Agreement, whichever is applicable.
6. Where the competent authorities of one Party take action under paragraph 5, they shall promptly inform the competent authorities of the other Party of taking such action, providing reasons for their action.
7. Where measures taken in application of paragraph 5 of this Article are not discontinued even though the basis for taking them has ceased to exist, either Party may refer the matter to the Joint Committee.

3. The assurance of safety for civil aircraft, their passengers and crew being a fundamental precondition for the operation of international air services, the Parties reaffirm their obligations to each other to provide for the security of civil aviation against acts of unlawful interference, and in particular their obligations under the Convention, the Convention on Offences and Certain Other Acts Committed on Board Aircraft, signed at Tokyo on 14 September 1963, the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Seizure of Aircraft, signed at The Hague on 16 December 1970, the Convention for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts against the Safety of Civil Aviation, signed at Montreal on 23 September 1971, the Protocol for the Suppression of Unlawful Acts of Violence at Airports Serving International Civil Aviation, signed at Montreal on 24 February 1988 and the Convention on the marking of plastic explosives for purpose of detection signed at Montreal on 1 March 1991, insofar as both Parties are parties to these conventions, as well as all other conventions and protocols relating to civil aviation security of which both Parties are parties.
4. The Parties shall provide upon request all necessary assistance to each other to prevent acts of unlawful seizure of civil aircraft and other unlawful acts against the safety of such aircraft, their passengers and crew, airports and air navigation facilities, and any other threat to the security of civil aviation.
5. The Parties shall, in their mutual relations, act in conformity with the aviation security Standards and, so far as they are applied by them, the Recommended Practices established by the International Civil Aviation Organisation (ICAO) and designated as Annexes to the Convention, to the extent that such security provisions are applicable to the Parties. Both Parties shall require that operators of aircraft of their registry, operators who have their principal place of business or permanent residence in their territory, and the operators of airports in their territory, act in conformity with such aviation security provisions.
6. Each Party shall ensure that effective measures are taken within its territory to protect aircraft, to screen passengers and their carry-on items, and to carry out appropriate checks on crew, cargo (including hold baggage) and aircraft stores prior to and during boarding or loading and that those measures are adjusted to meet increases in the threat.
