## 2.5Am I required report occurrences that happened outside of the EU?

2.5 Am I required report occurrences that happened outside of the EU?

Regulation 376/2014 covers all occurrences involving an [aircraft](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/aircraft) registered in a Member State or operated by an [organisation](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/organisation) established in a Member State, even if the [occurrence](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/occurrence) happened outside the territory of that Member State (Recital 18).

| Key principle Occurrences should be reported even if they happen outside of the European Union. |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

| Example: A pilot in command flying on a European airline and being aware of an occurrence listed in Annex I of Regulation 2015/1018 which happened in a third country is required to report it. |
| ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |

In addition, in the case of potential reporters working in production and design organisations, the reporting of occurrences is understood as covering products under their manufacturing or design responsibilities, regardless of the State of occurrence, operator or registration.
