    Present operation is not confirmed by the later official records opened

The decree proves approval and a ten-year concession structure. The later official records opened do not confirm present operation, renewal, termination or replacement 1,23.

What the 2016 decree proves

Mali's official journal published Decree 2016-0743/P-RM on 2 December 2016 1. The decree records approval of a concession agreement between the government and Securiport LLC 1.

The published term is ten years 1. The project covers the construction, maintenance and transfer of a civil aviation and immigration security system 1.

What the decree does not publish

The decree refers to an earlier airport security fee framework, but it does not state the amount paid by a passenger, who pays it or how revenue is divided 1.

It does not publish the contract signature date, project value, procurement route, data-retention rules or detailed transfer conditions 1. Those points should not be inferred from the approval alone.

What later official records show

The Mali public procurement portal listed current procurement material when checked on 25 October 2026, including aviation-security equipment work 2. No later Securiport renewal, termination or replacement notice was found in the records opened 2.

The Ministry of Security and Civil Protection describes current airport and border-security bodies, including the airport anti-trafficking unit 3. The opened pages do not state the current operating position of the 2016 concession 3.

The accurate current reading

The defensible statement is narrow. A ten-year concession was approved in 2016 1. The opened official record does not establish when the contract was signed or operations began, so the approval date alone cannot be used to calculate an expiry date.

No current official notice opened for this page confirms continued operation, renewal, termination or replacement 2,3. A current-status claim needs a later government notice, signed amendment, procurement decision or operator statement.
