rate depending on the noise category as defined below. When the calculated amount
is below JPY50,000, JPY50,000 will be applied as the minimum charge.
(a) Where the sum of noise values of the aircraft is at least 20 EPNdB below the total
noise standard values at the flyover, approach and sideline measurement points
as defined in the International Civil Aviation Convention Annex 16 Volume 1
Chapter 3 AND all of the individual noise values measured at each of the
measurement points are at least 4 EPNdB below the noise standard values at the
corresponding points; @JPY 1,550/tonne.
(b) Where the sum of noise values of the aircraft is at least 15 EPNdB below the total
noise standard values at the three measurement points AND all of the individual
noise values measured at each of the measurement points are at least 3 EPNdB
below the noise standard values at the corresponding points BUT do not come
under (a); @JPY 1,650/tonne.
(c) Where the sum of noise values of the aircraft is at least 10 EPNdB below the total
noise standard values at the three measurement points AND all of the individual
noise values at each of the measurement points are at least 2 EPNdB below the
noise standard values at the corresponding points BUT do not come under (a) or
(b); @JPY 1,750/tonne.
(d) Where the sum of noise values of the aircraft is at least 5 EPNdB below the total
noise standard values at the three measurement points AND all of the individual
noise values at each of the measurement points are at least 1 EPNdB below the
noise standard values at the corresponding points BUT do not come under (a), (b)
or (c); @JPY 1,850/tonne.

will be 1/8 (1/16 in case of aircraft with MTOW of 6 tonnes or less) of
the sum calculated in accordance with (b).
(d) Notwithstanding the provisions (a), (b) or (c), when the amount obtained in
accordance with (a), (b) or (c) is less than JPY3,500 (or JPY2,000 in case of a
rotorcraft), a minimum charge of JPY3,500 (JPY2,000 for a rotorcraft) will apply.
(C) The exception to landing charges calculation as specified in the Annex will use the
method and formula defined in the said Annex.

Aircraft weight/MTOW multiplied by the respective applicable unit rate, as the case may
be:
(a) When parked for less than 6 hours: @JPY200/t.
(b) When parked for 6 hours or longer: the total sum of the applicable charge (a)
and an additional JPY200/t multiplied by aircraft’s MTOW for each 24-hour period
(or part thereof) beyond the first 6 hours.
(B) Aircraft engaged in domestic services:
For aircraft parking for 6 hours or longer, an amount obtained by multiplying the
aircraft’s MTOW by JPY180/t will be assessed for every 24 hours’ parking period.
5. With regard to the above clause, when the aircraft weight is shown in pounds, 1,000lbs should
be converted to 0.45359243 tonnes.
6. In calculating the charges as set forth in Clause 4 above, NAA will apply the rate prescribed
below, aircraft weight and noise rating to the calculation for aircraft for which notification of items
prescribed in Article 7, Clause 1- 2 has not been received.
(1) Aircraft engaged on international services
(A) Rate applied to calculation of the landing charge Rate prescribed in Clause 4-1-(A)-(f)

(A) Weight applied to the calculation of the landing and parking charge: The maximum of
all weights for the same model aircraft published by the manufacturer
(B) Weight applied to the calculation of the landing charge and parking charge: The
maximum of all weights for the same model aircraft published by the manufacturer
7. When the User does not lodge an objection within the Objection Period to the notification of
invoice amount for use of the landing/take-off facilities as prescribed in Clause 1 after said
charges have been calculated by NAA in accordance with the provisions of the previous Clause,
the User will be deemed to agree with the amount and shall complete payment of the confirmed
amount within the period specified by NAA. Once the charge is confirmed, the User cannot lodge
an objection and the amount cannot be amended or adjusted.
8. Even if the User has lodged an objection to notification received on the invoice amount for use
of the landing/take-off facilities as prescribed in Clause 1 after said charges have been calculated
by NAA in accordance with the provisions of Clause 6, the User, having submitted notification of
the items as prescribed in Article 7, Clause 1-2 within the Objection Period (except where the
notification of items as prescribed in Article 7, Clause 1-2 has already been accepted), must
complete payment of the invoiced amount within the period specified by NAA. As long as the
submission has been received and there is a difference between the charge calculated on the
12
basis of the applicable notification and the amount actually paid, NAA will adjust the amount. In
this regard, refunds shall not accrue any interest, etc.
9. In case of violation of the above clauses 1 and 3, NAA may suspend the use of the
