CAAS to Provide Regulatory Fee Rebate to Singapore Carriers
18 February 2020
Rebates are part of the Government’s Stabilisation and Support Package (SSP) to help aviation community amidst the impact of the COVID-19 outbreak
The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) will provide a 50% rebate on its regulatory fees for new and renewed Certificates of Airworthiness. The rebate is part of a suite of measures to provide assistance to the aviation sector under the SSP announced by Mr Heng Swee Keat, Deputy Prime Minister and Minister for Finance today.
2 All Singapore carriers pay fees for Certificates of Airworthiness for their aircraft fleet on an annual basis. Singapore carriers operating scheduled flights will benefit from this rebate[1], which is estimated to save the carriers about S$6 million in total.
3 The assistance measures for the aviation sector under the SSP, co-funded by the Government, CAAS and the Changi Airport Group (CAG), aim to help the aviation community defray business costs and protect jobs, as well as safeguard Singapore’s air connectivity amidst the impact of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus Disease 2019) outbreak.
