Sec. 243.15  Conflict with foreign laws.



    (a) If a covered airline obtains a waiver in the manner described in 

this section, it will not be required to solicit, collect or transmit 

information under this part in countries where such solicitation or 

collection would violate applicable foreign law, but only to the extent 

it is established by the carrier that such solicitation or collection 

would violate applicable foreign law.

    (b) Covered airlines that claim that such solicitation, collection 

or transmission would violate applicable foreign law in certain foreign 

countries shall file a petition requesting a waiver in the Docket 

Facility, on or before October 1, 1998, or on or before beginning 

service between that country and United States. Such petition shall 

include copies of the pertinent foreign law, as well as a certified 

translation, and shall include opinions of appropriate legal experts 

setting forth the basis for the conclusion that collection would violate 

such foreign law. Statements from foreign governments on the application 

of their laws will also be accepted.

    (c) The U.S. Department of Transportation will notify the covered 

airline of the extent to which it has been satisfactorily established 

that compliance with all or part of the data collection requirements of 

this part would constitute a violation of foreign law.

    (d) The U.S. Department of Transportation will maintain an up-to-

date listing in OST Docket 98-3305 of countries where adherence to all 

or a portion of this part is not required because of a conflict with 

applicable foreign law.
