Turban Screening: Report Your Experiences to UNITED SIKHS

Since EC Regulation 185/2010 came into force on 29 April 2010, the rules on the searching of religious head wear at airports have changed. The airport securities within the EU can now demand turbans and other religious head wear to be removed regardless of passing through the necessary security checks without alarming security devices.

In order to help us stop this violation of human rights, we need you to report any incident you or someone you know has experienced, in the form below. Thank you.
