Scope and proliferation of charges

It is recommended that States:

i) Permit the imposition of charges only for services and functions which are provided for, directly related to, or ultimately beneficial for, civil aviation operations; and

ii) Refrain from imposing charges which discriminate against international civil aviation in relation to other modes of international transport.

In this regard the Council is concerned about the proliferation of charges on air traffic and notes that the imposition of charges in one jurisdiction can lead to the introduction of charges in another jurisdiction.
