Advance passenger information mandates separate passenger and crew manifest files with prescribed flight, identity, travel-document and formatting details.

Advance passenger information for aircraft export manifests must be furnished in separate flat files for passengers and crew for each flight. Records must contain prescribed flight, passenger or crew, travel-document, address, visa and carrier-contact particulars; crew records additionally require licence and crew-type information. Data fields must be pipe-delimited, unavailable values must be null rather than spaces, and each passenger record must be placed on one line. Where a passport number is not mandatory, the travel-document type must be recorded as "other" with a unique document number.
