**1.** Each Contracting Party shall allow tariffs for air transportation to be established by each designated airline based upon commercial considerations in the marketplace. Intervention by the Contracting Parties shall be limited to:
prevention of unreasonably discriminatory tariffs or practices;
protection of consumers from tariffs that are unreasonably high or restrictive due to the abuse of a dominant position; and
protection of airlines from tariffs that are artificially low due to direct or indirect governmental subsidy or support.
**2.** Each Contracting Party shall require notification to its aeronautical authorities of tariffs to be charged to or from its territory by airlines of the other Contracting Party. Notification by the airlines of both Contracting Parties shall be required no more than thirty (30) days before the proposed date of effectiveness. In individual cases, notification may be permitted on shorter notice than normally required. Neither Contracting Party shall require the notification or filing by airlines of the other Contracting Party of tariffs charged by charterers to the public, except as may be required on a non-discriminatory basis for information purposes.
**3.** Neither Contracting Party shall take unilateral action to prevent the inauguration or continuation of a tariff proposed to be charged by (1) an airline of either Contracting Party for international air transportation between the territories of the Contracting Parties , or (2) an airline of one Contracting Party for air transportation between the territory of the other Contracting Party and any other country, including in both cases transportation on an interline or intraline basis. If either Contracting Party believes that any such tariff is inconsistent with the considerations set forth in paragraph 1 of this Article, it shall request consultations and notify the other Contracting Party of the reasons for its dissatisfaction as soon as possible. These consultations shall be held not later than thirty (30) days after receipt of the request, and the Contracting Parties shall co-operate in securing information necessary for reasoned resolution of the issue. If the Contracting Parties reach agreement with respect to a tariff for which a notice of dissatisfaction has been given, each Contracting Party shall use its best efforts to put that agreement into effect. Without such mutual agreement, the tariff shall go into effect or continue in effect.
**4.** Notwithstanding the provisions of paragraphs 1 to 3 of this Article, the tariffs to be charged by the designated airlines of the Netherlands Antilles for carriage within the European Community shall be subject to European Community Law.
