COMMISSION REGULATION (EU) No 319/2014
of 27 March 2014
on the fees and charges levied by the European Aviation Safety Agency, and repealing Regulation (EC) No 593/2007
(Text with EEA relevance)
THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,
Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,
Having regard to Regulation (EC) No 216/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 February 2008 on common rules in the field of civil aviation and establishing a European Aviation Safety Agency, and repealing Council Directive 91/670/EEC, Regulation (EC) No 1592/2002 and Directive 2004/36/EC (1), in particular Article 64(1) thereof,
After consulting the Management Board of the European Aviation Safety Agency,
Whereas:
(1) |
The revenues of the European Aviation Safety Agency (hereinafter ‘the Agency’), consist of a contribution from the Union and from any European third country which has entered into the agreements referred to in Article 66 of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008, of the fees paid by applicants for certificates and approvals issued, maintained or amended by the Agency, and of charges for publications, handling of appeals, training and any other service provided by the Agency. |
(2) |
Commission Regulation (EC) No 593/2007 (2) established the fees and charges to be levied by the Agency. However, the tariffs need to be adjusted in order to ensure a balance between the costs incurred by the Agency for related certification tasks and services provided, and the revenues to cover said costs. |
(3) |
Fees and charges provided for in this Regulation should be set in a transparent, fair and uniform manner. |
(4) |
The fees levied by the Agency should not jeopardize the competitiveness of the European industries concerned. Furthermore, they should be established on a basis which takes due account of the ability of small undertakings to pay. |
(5) |
While civil aviation safety should be the prime concern, the Agency should nevertheless take full account of cost efficiency when conducting the tasks incumbent on it. |
(6) |
The geographical location of the undertakings in the territories of the Member States should not be a discriminatory factor. Consequently, the travel costs related to the certification tasks carried out on behalf of such undertakings should be aggregated and divided between the applicants. |
(7) |
This Regulation foresees the possibility for the Agency to charge fees for certification tasks which are not mentioned in the Annex to this Regulation, but which fall within the remits of Regulation (EC) No 216/2008. |
(8) |
The applicant should have the choice to request a financial quote of the estimated amount to be paid for the certification task or service. The criteria for determining the amount to be paid should be clear, uniform and public. Where it is not possible to accurately determine this amount in advance, transparent principles for assessing the amount to be paid during the provision of the certification task or service should be established by the Agency. |
(9) |
Deadlines for the payment of fees and charges levied under this Regulation should be fixed. |
(10) |
Appropriate remedies in cases of non-payment should be laid down such as the termination of the related application processes, invalidation of related approvals, prevention of any further provision of certification tasks or services to the same applicant, and recovery of the outstanding amount through available means. |
(11) |
The industry should enjoy good financial visibility and be able to anticipate the cost of the fees and charges it will be required to pay. At the same time, it is necessary to ensure a... |
