When should use of another controller's airspace be coordinated?

Explanation:
Coordination should happen before you enter another controller's airspace. This pre-entry handoff ensures the receiving controller is prepared to assume responsibility, has the aircraft’s identification, altitude, route, and next actions, and can issue the next clearance to maintain safe separation and proper sequencing. Establishing this contact at the boundary avoids gaps in coverage and allows the inbound controller to plan transitions smoothly. Waiting until you’re inside the other controller’s airspace or only coordinating when the other controller is on a break would risk loss of coordination and potential conflicts.
