International aviation: Pakistan
On 24 February 2009, the EU and the Government of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan signed an aviation agreement which will restore legal certainty regarding bilateral air services agreements between Pakistan and EU Member States.
The agreement will bring several provisions in the 18 bilateral air services agreements between EU Member States and Pakistan in line with EU law. Most importantly, it will remove nationality restrictions in the bilateral air services agreements between EU Member States and Pakistan and thereby allows any EU airline to operate flights between Pakistan and any EU Member State where it is established and where a bilateral agreement with Pakistan exists and traffic rights are available.
The agreement is an important step towards further strengthening the EU-Pakistan aviation relations and will encourage traffic between the EU and Pakistan.
