North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) Status of Forces Agreement
This page and the Identity Card it refers to are currently under development.
An example of this Card is provided below.
The NATO Status of Forces Agreement is the treaty that sets out the terms under which the armed forces of a NATO Member State are allowed to operate and live within another NATO Member State. Whilst assigned to a NATO Member State, United Kingdom (GBR) Ministry of Defence personnel are entitled to the rights and subject to the obligations of the NATO Status of Forces Agreement, to which all NATO Member States are parties.
The bearer of a British Forces NATO Status of Forces Agreement Personal Identity Card is a member of the Force, the Civilian Component or a Dependant of the NATO Sending State (GBR) as defined by Article I of the NATO Status of Forces Agreement. The bearer of this Card should be afforded the privileges accorded by Article III of the NATO Status of Forces Agreement in respect of passport and visa regulation and immigration inspection on entering or leaving a NATO Member State, and on the registration and control of Aliens.
