            COMMISSION IMPLEMENTING REGULATION (EU) 2025/2347
of 21 November 2025
         
on the fees and charges levied by the European Union Aviation Safety Agency, and repealing Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2153


THE EUROPEAN COMMISSION,

Having regard to the Treaty on the Functioning of the European Union,


Having regard to Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 4 July 2018 on common rules in the field of civil aviation and establishing a European Union Aviation Safety Agency, and amending Regulations (EC) No 2111/2005, (EC) No 1008/2008, (EU) No 996/2010, (EU) No 376/2014 and Directives 2014/30/EU and 2014/53/EU of the European Parliament and of the Council, and repealing Regulations (EC) No 552/2004 and (EC) No 216/2008 of the European Parliament and of the Council and Council Regulation (EEC) No 3922/91 (1), and in particular Article 126(4) thereof,

Whereas:







(1)


Pursuant to Article 120(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139, the revenues of the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (‘the Agency’), include, among other items, the fees paid by applicants for, and holders of, certificates issued by the Agency, and by persons who have registered declarations with the Agency, and charges for publications, handling of appeals, training and any other service provided by the Agency.












(2)


Commission Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2153 (2) set out the fees and charges to be levied by the Agency. However, the tariffs are to be adjusted in order to achieve recovery of the full cost of the activities related to the services delivered by the Agency while avoiding significant accumulation of surplus, in accordance with Article 126(2) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139.












(3)


On the one hand, the adjusted fees and charges should be set in a transparent, fair, non-discriminatory and uniform manner, and should take into account the Agency’s forecasts as regards its workload, related costs and other relevant factors. On the other hand, fees and charges levied by the Agency should not jeopardise the competitiveness of the Union industry concerned. Likewise, they should be established on a basis which takes due account of the ability of the legal or natural persons concerned, in particular micro, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), to pay the fees.












(4)


Recognising the operational, financial and administrative constraints faced by SMEs, it is appropriate to apply requirements and processes that are proportionate to their specificities and alleviate undue administrative burden. Regulatory technical requirements in the area of initial and continuing airworthiness, personnel licensing and training, air operations, air navigation services and equipment certification and related certification processes are therefore scaled or simplified for SMEs. The fee structure is adapted to the size and complexity for the related product or organisational approval. Besides, the Agency is providing guidance and support in the implementation of such requirements.












(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, having regard to the scope of those tasks as laid down in Regulation (EU) 2018/1139, and the resources available to it.












(6)


The Agency should be entitled to levy fees and charges for certification tasks or the provision of other services which are not specifically mentioned in the Annex to this Regulation, but which are within the scope of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 or are imposed on the Agency under other relevant Union legislation, to finance associated costs.












(7)


Agreements referred to in Article 68(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 usually provide a basis for the evaluation of the actual workload involved in the certification of third countries’ products. In principle, the process for validation by the Agency of certificates issued by a third country with which the Union has an appropriate agreement is described in such agreement and results in a workload that differs from the workload required for certification activities by the Agency. This is primarily because the Agency may rely, to a certain extent, on the certification activities already conducted by the third-country authority under the terms of the relevant agreement, thereby reducing the amount of work required from the Agency. Therefore, it is necessary to adjust the applicable fees to reflect the nature of the workoload associated which such validations.












(8)


In order to ensure legal certainty, administrative efficiency and sound financial management, time limits for the payment of fees and charges levied under this Regulation should be fixed.












(9)


In the interest of financial fairness and proportionality, when an application is rejected, or where performance of a task related to an application is interrupted or terminated, the fees payable should be fixed at an appropriate amount that takes into account the reduced workload.












(10)


It is appropriate that when the Agency temporarily delays the initiation of the evaluation and processing of a new application, the applicable fees should be charged only upon the commencement of the Agency’s activities.












(11)


In order to contribute to fees and charges being recovered to the fullest extent possible, appropriate remedies in cases of non-payment and risk of non-payment should be laid down.












(12)


The geographical location of undertakings in the territories of the Member States should not be a discriminatory factor. Consequently, the travel expenses related to the certification tasks carried out for such undertakings should be aggregated and divided among the applicants.












(13)


Applicants should be able to request an estimate of the amount to be paid for the certification tasks and services, to increase predictability. In certain cases, the preparation of the estimate requires the Agency to perform a prior technical analysis. It is justified for the Agency to be remunerated for the cost of that analysis accordingly.












(14)


To discourage unfounded or dilatory appeals and ensure procedural fairness, full payment of the charges for an appeal against decisions of the Agency should be a prerequisite for the appeal to be admissible.












(15)


While this Regulation should enable industry to anticipate the level of the fees and charges it will be required to pay, it is necessary to regularly examine whether its terms need to be revised, in accordance with Article 126(3) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139.












(16)


In order to provide interested parties with an insight into the rationale behind the fees, they should be informed about how the fees are calculated. They should also be consulted prior to any change of fees, in order to explain the reasons for any proposed change.












(17)


On 9 July 2025, the Commission consulted the Management Board of the Agency in accordance with Article 98(2), point (i), of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139. On 10 September 2025, the Management Board expressed its favourable opinion.












(18)


Given the number of amendments and in the interest of clarity and legal certainty, Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2153 should be repealed.












(19)


To ensure a smooth transition from the rules laid down in Implementing Regulation (EU) 2019/2153 to those laid down in this Regulation, in particular with regard to ongoing procedures, transitional provisions should be laid down.












(20)


The measures provided for in this Regulation are in accordance with the opinion of the committee established by Article 127(1) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139,





HAS ADOPTED THIS REGULATION:

(a)


termination of performance of a task upon request of the applicant shall be deemed to take effect on the date of receipt of the request;










(b)


termination of performance of a task on initiative of the Agency shall be deemed to take effect on the date when the decision on the termination is communicated to the applicant;










(c)

The Agency may revoke the relevant certificate or permanently deregister the relevant declaration if the certificate holder or the issuer of the declaration fails to comply with its payment obligations within 30 calendar days from the date of notification of the suspension. The reinstatement of the certificate or declaration shall be subject to prior payment of the balance of fees due for the period of suspension together with any other amounts due at that time.


3.   If the Agency revokes a certificate or permanently deregisters a declaration because the certificate holder or the issuer of the declaration fails to comply with the applicable requirements or fails to pay the annual fee or surveillance fee, the balance of any fees due for the ongoing billing cycle shall be calculated as follows:






(a)


for annual or surveillance flat fees levied per certificate or declaration and per billing cycle, the balance of any fees due shall be 1/365th of the relevant flat fee per day;










(b)


for annual fees or surveillance fees levied on an hourly basis, the balance of any fees due shall be calculated on an hourly basis.




The amounts referred to in the first subparagraph, points (a) and (b), together with any travel expenses and any other amounts due, shall be payable in full on the date the revocation or deregistration takes effect.



Article 12

Surrender or transfer of certificates, and deactivation of flight simulation training devices


1.   If the certificate holder surrenders a certificate, the balance of any fees due for the ongoing billing cycle shall be calculated as follows:

Explanatory Note









1.


High-performance aircraft in the weight category up to 5 700 kg as defined in Article 2(16) shall be charged one category higher than the category determined by their Maximum Take-Off Weight (MTOW), but not exceeding the category ‘over 5 700 kg up to 22 000 kg’.












2.


In Part I, Tables 1 to 4 and 8, of this Annex, the values of the ‘Parts and Non-installed equipment’ refer to the relevant manufacturer’s list prices.












3.


For fees levied in accordance with Part I, Tables 2, 3, 4 and 8, of this Annex, the applicable fee category per application shall be determined by the fee category assigned to the related type design. Where multiple models are certified under one type design, the fee category of the majority of these models is applicable. In the case of an even distribution of fee category, the higher fee category applies. For applications relating to several type designs, the highest fee category is applicable.












4.


If an application includes the concept of establishing an Approved Model List (AML), the corresponding fee increased by 20 % shall apply. For the revision of an approved model list, the fees listed in Part I, Tables 2, 3, and 4, of this Annex shall apply. The concept of Approved Model List refers to models certified under different type designs.

EASA Supplemental Type Certificate (STC)


STC, major design change, or repair, only involving current and well-proven justification methods, for which a complete set of data (description, compliance check-list and compliance documents) can be communicated at the time of application, and for which the applicant has demonstrated experience, and which can be assessed by the project certification manager alone, or with a limited involvement of a single discipline specialist


All other STCs, major design changes or repairs


‘Significant’ is defined in point 21.A.101(b) of Annex I (Part 21) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012 (and similarly in FAA 14CFR 21.101 (b)).


‘Complex Significant Change’ is any significant change (see point 21.A.101 of Annex I (Part 21) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012) involving at least two reasons justifying its classification as significant (examples of criteria as per point 21.A.101 of Annex I (Part 21) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012: change in the general configuration, change to the principles of construction, assumptions used for certification have been invalidated) or any significant change involving two or more examples described as significant change (column ‘Description of change’ Tables in Appendix A to GM 21.A.101 of Annex I (Part 21) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012).
If justified by exceptional technical circumstances, the Agency may reclassify a complex significant application to significant (e.g. Passenger to Freighter Conversion STCs).
