Countries in grey are part of the European Union (EU). If goods are properly imported into one EU country and re-exported from a second EU country, the Carnet holder is unlikely to encounter any claims fees.

Countries in blue
have joined the ATA Carnet System in 2000 and 2001.

* For details on traveling with a Carnet to China please call the CIB Carnet Helpline at 1 (800) ATA-2900.

** The ATA Carnet continues to be accepted in Hong Kong despite the change in sovereignty.

*** Visits to Taiwan require a separate Carnet known as TECRO.

**** Corporation for International Business and the USCIB are pleased to announce that Mexico has cleared the first major hurdle to becoming a full partner in the ATA Carnet System by formally acceding the ATA Conventions on early February 2001. Operational details and the date on which Mexico will accept Carnets have yet to be finalized. For more information on traveling to Mexico, please contact Curt Wilson at the CIB ATA Carnet Helpline
1-800-ATA-2900.
