Sec. 352.308  Effecting employment by transfer.

    (a) Authority to approve transfers. On written request by an 
international organization for the services of an employee, the agency 
may authorize the transfer of the employee to the organization for any 
period not to exceed 5 years, except that when the Secretary of State 
determines it to be in the national interest, a period of employment by 
transfer may be extended, subject to the approval of the head of the 
agency, for up to an additional 3 years. A transfer or series of 
transfers or combination of details and transfers shall not exceed 8 
years in the aggregate. Refusal by the head of the agency to authorize 
the transfer or the extension of the transfer is not reviewable by or 
appealable to OPM.
    (b) Letter of consent. When an agency consents to the transfer of an 
employee, the agency shall give its consent in writing to the 
international organization and shall furnish the employee with a copy of 
the consent.
    (c) Effective date. The agency and the international organization 
shall establish the effective date of transfer by mutual agreement.
    (d) Recording requirement. The agency shall furnish the employee 
with a statement of his leave account when he is separated for transfer. 
In addition, the agency shall include on the personnel action form 
effecting the employee's separation for transfer, (1) identification of 
the international organization to which he transfers, (2) a clear 
statement of the period during which he has reemployment rights in the 
agency under section 3582 of title 5, United States Code, and this 
subpart, and of the legal and regulatory conditions of his reemployment.
