(d) Travel for Personal or Professional Reasons
The participating States intend to facilitate wider travel
by their citizens for personal or professional reasons and to
this end they intend in particular:
- gradually to simplify and to administer flexibly the procedures for exit and entry;
- to ease regulations concerning movement of citizens from the other participating States in their territory, with due regard to security requirements.
They will endeavour gradually to lower, where necessary, the
fees for visas and official travel documents.
They intend to consider, as necessary, means - including, in
so far as appropriate, the conclusion of multilateral or
bilateral consular conventions or other relevant agreements or
understandings - for the improvement of arrangements to provide
consular services, including legal and consular assistance.
They confirm that religious faiths, institutions and
organizations, practising within the constitutional framework of
the participating States, and their representatives can, in the
field of their activities, have contacts and meetings among
themselves and exchange information.
