Checks shall normally not be carried out in the transit area, unless it is justified on the basis of an assessment of the risks related to internal security and illegal immigration; in particular checks in this area may be carried out on persons submitted to an airport transit visa in order to check that they are in possession of such a visa.
Tranzīta zonā parasti kontroles neveic, izņemot gadījumus, ja tās var pamatot ar drošību un nelegālu imigrāciju saistītu draudu analīze; pārbaudes tranzīta zonā var veikt personām, kam vajadzīga lidostas tranzīta vīza, lai pārbaudītu, vai viņām ir tāda vīza.
