ANATL, E.P. (Administração de Aeroportos e Navegação Aérea de Timor-Leste, Empresa Pública) was founded in 2005 under Decree-Law No. 8/2005. It was created as a state-owned legal entity with administrative and financial autonomy to consolidate Timor-Leste's independence in aviation and flight navigation.
Our mandate covers the entire spectrum of civil airport management, ground logistics safety, and aeronautical communication channels. As Timor-Leste modernizes its key logistics gates (including terminal expansions at Presidente Nicolau Lobato Airport), ANATL stands at the vanguard of this national development framework.
In accordance with bilateral agreements and regional treaties, we continuously upgrade airspace safety installations, securing flight connections between Dili, Darwin, Bali, and emerging regional hubs.
Oversees state-owned operations, coordinating strategic development with the Ministry of Transport.
Directs daily operations, ground logistics, security clearances, and terminal personnel management.
Responsible for navigation instrumentation calibration, radar installations, and flight telecommunications.
Discover the core services provided by ANATL, E.P. to ensure flight safety, regulatory alignment, and passenger convenience.
Providing en-route area control, terminal sequencing, and aerodrome control tower guidance for safe traffic flows.
Calibrating navigation beacons (ILS, DME, VOR), maintaining radar telemetry, and securing air-ground radio networks.
Organizing ground procedures, passenger boarding terminals, runways, and baggage distribution at 4 main domestic gates.
Enforcing strict perimeter policing, advanced passenger check-in screening, and emergency contingency protocols.
