Parliament's amended version of the proposed regulation on collecting and transferring advance passenger information to prevent, detect, investigate and prosecute terrorist offences and serious crime. It lays down rules for air carriers to collect and transmit passenger data to member states, and for authorities to process that data for law enforcement purposes.
Key points
- Requires air carriers to collect advance passenger information (API) for all flights entering or leaving the EU and transfer it to the competent authorities.
- Sets rules for processing API data, including storage periods, data protection safeguards, and conditions for sharing data with other member states or Europol.
- Establishes that API data may be used to prevent, detect, investigate and prosecute terrorist offences and serious crime, but not for other purposes.
- Requires member states to designate competent authorities and ensure they have the technical means to receive and process API data.
- Amends Regulation (EU) 2019/818 to align it with the new rules on API data processing.
Who is affected
- Air carriers operating flights to or from the EU, which must collect and transmit passenger data.
- Member states' authorities responsible for border control and law enforcement, which will receive and process the data.
- Passengers, whose personal data will be collected and processed for security purposes.
Legal basis. Articles 82(1)(d) and 87(2)(a) of the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union
