COVID-19: NCAA orders airlines to issue health declaration forms aboard aircraft
The Nigerian Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA) has ordered all airlines operating International and Regional flights into Nigeria to issue Health Declaration Forms to their passengers including crew members before arriving Nigerian airports.
The NCAA in a statement signed by the general manager public relations, Mr Sam Adurogboye noted that the warning is coming on the heels of failure of some airlines operating International and Regional flights into Nigeria to provide Health Declaration Forms (Passengers self-reporting forms).
Adurogboye said a letter to this effect has been issued to all airlines and other stakeholders.
He stated that airlines are to remind passengers to provide factual address and phone numbers to enhance contact tracing in case there is need to do so.
According to him: “The Health Declaration forms (Passenger self-reporting forms) will be collected and evaluated by the personnel of Port Health Services on the arrival of the passengers and crew members alike.
“Airlines are to collect the Health Declaration forms (Passenger self-reporting forms) from the Port Health Services at the various International Airports of the country.
Failure to comply with the directive by any airline will attract severe sanctions, ” Adurogboye explained.
