Civil Aviation Notices are issued in terms of CAR-11 and are a means of circulating safety critical requirements, or essential information of an administrative or technical nature to aviation participants within Oman.

Instructions contained in these Notices are to be observed by all concerned and where dates are given for compliance with such instructions the specified date must not be exceeded, except by written authorisation of the Authority.

Air Navigation Service Providers (ANSPs) have historically provided Air Navigation Services within Oman without certification to fulfil the requirements of Article 28 of the Convention on International Civil Aviation. The Authority has undertaken to certify such ANSPs however the requirement for certificate allows for a transitional period.

This Civil Aviation Notice provides for interim means of compliance with regard to implementing Quality and Safety Management Systems until such time as an Air Navigation Service Provider obtains certification.
