Computer reservation systems (hereinafter CRS) vendors operating in the Territory of one Contracting Party shall be entitled to bring in, maintain and make freely available their CRS to travel agencies or travel companies whose principal business is the distribution of travel-related products in the Territory of the other Contracting Party, provided the CRS complies with any relevant regulatory requirements of the other Contracting Party.

4. Owners and operators of CRS of one Contracting Party that comply with the relevant regulatory requirements of the other Contracting Party, if any, shall have the same opportunity to own CRS within the Territory of the other Contracting Party as do the owners and operators of any other CRS operating in the market of that Contracting Party.
