The application of the Agency Fees are set out in Resolution 818g Attachment ‘D’.
If an application for Accreditation is rejected or withdrawn, the fees related to Registration, Annual and Travel Agency Commissioner fee will be refunded.
Annual Agency Fees
For the purpose of determining the amount of the annual fee applicable to the Agent, IATA will compute the Agent’s gross sales processed through the BSP during the 12-month period ending June of the previous year, before the annual fee period is billed. Sales will be calculated by adding all reporting periods included in the applicable months.
An application for Accreditation includes a first annual agency fee covering the year of application for the amount of CHF 200, for either Cash and Non-Cash Accreditation types; or CHF 48,000 for Multi-Country Accreditation types.
To determine the amount to be paid for subsequent years, the Agent’s BSP gross sales will be considered as follows:
• Small–up to USD 200,000 gross annual sales
• Medium–USD 200,001–USD 2,000,000 gross annual sales
• Large–more than USD 2,000,000 gross annual sales
Lack of Compliance in Reporting Major Changes
For the purpose of assessing non-compliance to report a major change within the mandatory period, major changes consist of those relating to the ownership/structure of the Agent (change of ownership, legal entity legal name and shareholding).
Change of Accreditation Type
In the event that the Agent changes ownership, which results in a change of accreditation type, the difference in application fees will be charged to the new owner.
