Regulation and calculation of charges DFS performs air navigation services for the German government as outlined in Article 27c, paragraph 2 of the German Aviation Act. The costs incurred must be covered by revenues (charges, reimbursements and other sources of revenue). Terminal charges are levied by the air navigation services for providing services and facilities for aircraft during take-off and landing at German airports. Route charges are collected for enroute air navigation services and facilities which are used by aircraft in the airspace of the flight information regions of the Federal Republic of Germany. The unit rates are published in the relevant regulations. The actual charge to be paid is calculated using the weight factor in the case of terminal services
Invoices for route charges are issued in Euro and issued by the Central Route Charges Office (CRCO) of EUROCONTROL in Brussels as a single charge per flight. The revenue is then transferred to the individual States. Apart from including the costs incurred by DFS, this cost base also comprises the costs of EUROCONTROL and the aeronautical meteorological service financed from the German federal budget. The actual unit rate can be found here. The conditions of application of the route charges system (calculating charges, exemption from charges) and the conditions of payment can be found here. The regulations pertaining to air traffic control charges for take-offs and landings are contained in AIC IFR 1, 14 JAN 10. The unit rate for terminal navigation for 2010 is: 162,54 Euro subject to Value Added Tax of 19% at present. Previous regulations for VFR flights and for aircraft weighing less than 2 tonnes will no longer apply after 1 January 2010.
