Before you start

You need to sign in and choose who is applying. You can save your answers as a draft and come back to them. We check the records held by the Los Santos authorities, so answer the declaration truthfully.

What you need

• The aircraft registration, exactly as painted on the aircraft
• The type of aircraft and who operates it
• The number of passengers, and their names if you have them
• When you will arrive and how long you need
• Where you will land

How it works

1. Tell us about the aircraft, the people on board and when you will arrive.
2. Border Security checks the application, usually within 2 hours.
3. If it is granted, the clearance takes effect with Coral Control within one minute and lasts until the end of your arrival window.
4. Pay the fee of $250 within 7 days of applying.

You will be asked to sign in first.

After you apply

We will tell you the decision in Your account and by message on the island. If the clearance is granted, Coral Control will recognise the registration when you approach. Answer Coral Control on the radio and follow its directions.

If you are refused

Do not enter the Air Defence Identification Zone. You can apply again when the reason for refusal no longer applies, or call Coral Control on approach with the radio request /coralaccess.
