Statute overview

About this statute

This Order extends specified UK immigration-related Acts to Jersey, revokes earlier Jersey immigration orders, and lets the Minister set commencement and transitional provisions. This provision rewrites Immigration Act references for Jersey and sets out who may enter, remain, be exempt, or be deported under Jersey immigration control. This provision sets when a person is treated as entering Jersey and creates several immigration offences, penalties, arrest powers, search powers, and forfeiture rules. Immigration, police, and enforcement officers may use certain maritime enforcement powers in Jersey waters, but only for specified offences and subject to Ministerial authority for foreign or relevant-territory ships. The provision gives immigration officers, the Minister, and related officers powers to detain, search, seize, and require information, and it also imposes compliance duties on ship and aircraft operators and captains.
