Artikel 10

1. The Parties shall permit the transit of third State nationals through their territory if another Party so requests, under the condition that these persons will travel onward through any other transit States and will be readmitted by the State of destination.
2. The Parties shall do whatever is necessary to limit the transit of third State nationals to cases in which these persons cannot be transferred directly to the State of destination.
3. Transit can be refused by the Parties:
1. if the third State national runs a genuine risk in the State of destination or some other transit State of being subjected to torture, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment, the death penalty, or persecution because of his race, religion, nationality, political convictions or membership of a particular social group;
2. if the third State national will be prosecuted under the criminal law or subject to the enforcement of a criminal judgement in the territory of the requested Party or the State of transit;
3. on grounds of public health, domestic security or public order of the requested Party.
4. The requested Party may revoke any authorization issued if circumstances referred to in paragraph 3 of this Article subsequently arise or come to light which prohibit the execution of the transit operation, or if the onward journey in possible States of transit or the readmission is no longer possible. In this case, the requesting Party shall readmit the third State national or the stateless person without delay.
