The President has signed the Federal law On Russia’s accession to the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air.
Under the Federal Law, the Russian Federation will adhere to the Convention for the Unification of Certain Rules Relating to International Carriage by Air. This will bring Russian laws on air transportation in compliance with international law, and ensure the further integration of the national transport system into the international transport and logistics system.
The new Federal Law will contribute to the development of competitive conditions for air transportation and enhanced liability of carriers.
The Russian Federation is joining the convention subject to certain conditions, specifically, Russia’s right not to apply the convention’s provisions to international non-commercial air operations related to Russia’s functions and obligations as a sovereign state as well as related to the transportation of individuals, cargo and luggage for military officials onboard aircraft registered in the Russian Federation or on loan by the Russian Federation that are fully reserved by these officials or on their behalf.
