This section supplements the following portion(s) of the AIP: AD.
This AIRAC AIP Supplement is issued to provide guidance on the submission of Flight Plans (FPL) in Viet Nam. Its purpose is to facilitate pilots, aircraft operators, airlines and designated representative agents in submitting FPLs for flights departing from aerodromes and airports within Viet Nam. This guidance aims to ensure that flight plans are submitted accurately, completely, and in a timely manner in accordance with ICAO provisions.
Pilots, aircraft operators (flight dispatchers) or designated representative agents shall:
Submit information relative to an intended flight or a portion of a flight, to appropriate air traffic services units.
The flight plan shall be submitted in accordance with ICAO Annex 2, Chapter 3, section 3.3.1, prior to operating:
Any flight or portion thereof to be provided with air traffic control service;
Any flight within or into designated areas, or along designated routes, when so required by the Civil Aviation Authority of Viet Nam to facilitate the provision of flight information, alerting and search and rescue service;
Any flight within or into designated areas, or along designated routes, when so required by the Civil Aviation Authority of Viet Nam to facilitate coordination with appropriate military units or with air traffic services units in adjacent States in order to avoid the possible need for interception for the purpose of identification.
Any flight across national borders.
Flight plans shall not be submitted more than 120 hours before the EOBT.
For flights subject to multi-nodal ATFM procedures, the pilots, aircraft operators or agents shall submit the flight plan at least 3 hours prior to the Estimated Off-Block Time (EOBT).
For more detail on ATFM operations and associated flight planning requirement, consult section ENR 1.9 Air Traffic Flow Management and Airspace Management.
If submitted during flight, the FPL shall be submitted to the appropriate air traffic services unit at least 10 minutes before the aircraft is estimated to reach the intended point of entry into a control area or the point of crossing an airway.
