A NOTAM is required to be originated whenever the information to be disseminated is of a temporary nature (less than 90 days) or when operationally significant permanent changes or temporary changes of long duration are made at short notice.
A NOTAM may only be used to promulgate information for up to 90 days.
If the information to be published in a NOTAM is to remain effective for more than 90 days, or is a permanent change, please forward the request directly to Aeronautical Information Management (AIM):
