Update on the Use of Domestic Airlines in Mongolia

The U.S. Embassy prohibits U.S. government personnel use of the domestic services of MIAT and all services of Hangard and Trans-Ulgii for official travel because of uncertainties regarding service and maintenance schedules, aircraft certification and insurance status. This prohibition does not extend to MIAT's international flights.

The U.S. Embassy in Ulaanbaatar is located in the 11th Micro-district, just off of Ikh Toiruu (Big Ring Road) next to the Laotian Embassy.  The Consular Section can be reached by telephone at 976-11-329-095; by fax at 976-11-320-776; or by email at cons@usembassy.mn.
