About this Document

Under 14 CFR Part 389 of the Department's regulations, U.S. and foreign air carriers must pay filing fees to offset the cost to the U.S. Government of processing their applications. The fees (payable at www.pay.gov at the time application is made) are shown in 14 CFR Part 389.

The Department will waive these filing fees for foreign air carriers of countries that do not charge U.S. air carriers filing fees for comparable operating authority. This document provides a list of countries that hold either final or interim waivers from the requirement that they pay the filing fees set forth in 14 CFR §389.25 of the Department’s rules.
