Thank you

Answer
Dear Zahra,

After your landing you'll need to clear Immigrations where your entry will be processed and after you collect your baggage at the designated carrousel with your flight number and them you clear Customs.

If your bag does not arrive look for the airline staff close to the carrousels.

Hope you have a safe flight.
Best regards,
R. Gomes
