 ====== Taxes ======
-=====Italian Luxury Tax =====
+===== Austrian Air Transport Levy =====
-This is an additional item available only in the Requests/Quotes section.
+**Austrian Air Transport Levy (ATL)** is a **departure tax** charged on the carriage, from Austrian airports, of passengers on board aircraft with an **authorized weight of more than 2,000 Kg (4,400 lbs)**.
-'Italian Luxury Tax' is only **calculated** for the flights from and to Italian airports and depending on the number of PAX on each flight and the distance. The distance is calculated using Great Circle Distance + 95km.
+Both commercial and non-commercial business aircraft operators are subject to this tax.
-The values are as per below:
+The **amount due** per passenger depends on the geographical distance of the destination country/territory from Austria.
-  * €10 per PAX for the flights shorter than 100km
+Starting from 1 September 2020, passengers will be taxed **the following rates**:
-  * €100 per PAX for the flights between 100km and 1500km
-  * €200 per PAX for the flights longer than 1500km
-[{{ :leon:sales:ILT.png?200|'Italian Luxury Tax' calculations }}]
+  * 30 € (GCD < 350km)
-__**Example**__
+  * 12 € (GCD > 350km)
-Trip consists of 3 flights to and from Italy.
-Each flight has 3PAX added.
+If you carry out **domestic flights in Austria** and are liable to pay VAT for the transport of passengers, the effective tax rate will be slightly lower because VAT can be deducted from the air transport levy.
-The distance between the airports on 2 of the flights is greater than 1500km and on the 3rd flight - 800km
+**Under this scenario, the tax rates per passenger are:**
-In such case the **calculation is as follow**:
+  * 26.55 € (GCD < 350km)
+  * 10.62 € (GCD > 350km)
-**(6PAX x €200) + (3PAX x €100) = €1500**
+There are also the following **exemptions** from the ATL due:
+  * children below the age of two
+  * animals
+  * crewmembers and maintenance personnel
+  * training flights
+  * departures following tech stops and unscheduled landings up to 24h. Departures after 24h are subject to ATL calculations
-===== UK Air Passenger Duty Tax =====
-**UK Air Passenger Duty Tax** (UK APD) applies to trips departing from the UK or Northern Ireland and is based on below criteria:

-__**1. Destination bands**__
+See screenshot on the right.
-The rates vary depending on whether the trip starts in the UK or Northern Ireland and the airport of destination.
+The MTOW of the aircraft is more than 2000kg (4400lbs).
-**The trips starting in the Scottish Highlands and Island are excluded from UK APD.**
+The trip consists of 5 flights, 3 of which start in Austria.
-There are 2 destination bands:
+In the simplified version of the calculations, we only consider the flights starting in Austria and looking at the destination band and the number of PAX flying. No actual PAX are assigned.
-  * **Band ‘A’** where the distance from London/Belfast to the destination country’s capital city is between 0 to 2,000 miles
+**The calculation is as follow:**
-  * **Band ‘B’** where the distance from London/Belfast to the destination country’s capital city is between 2,001 miles and 5,500 miles
-  * **Band 'C'** where the distance from London/Belfast to the destination country’s capital city is over 5,500 miles
-Additionally, the calculation of UK APD for the trips **starting at Northern Ireland** take into consideration whether the flight is 'direct' or 'indirect'.
+**3 x €12 + 3 x €26.55 = €115.65**

-__**3. Number of PAX**__
+The trip consists of 5 flights, 3 of which start in Austria.
-Duty is charged on each passenger at the rate for the place where their journey ends (their final destination).
+PAX names are assigned to the flights.
-There are **2 stages** od UKAPD tax calculations.
+**The calculation is as follow:**
-The **first stage** is based on a simplified calculation and only takes into consideration the number of PAX leaving UK and the airport of destination. Based on this data the simplified tax amount is calculated.
+**3 x €26.55 = €79.65**
-Once the **PAX names** are added, Leon moves on to the **second stage** of UKAPD tax calculation. Based on the PAX names on each flight, Leon compares the names and calculates the tax based on the actual PAX and their final destination.
+=== Explanation ===
-The **recalculation is required**. In order to perform the recalculation, you need to:
+  * MTOW of an aircraft is more than 2000kg
+  * the same PAX are assigned on both flights and the tax is calculated on the higher rate (domestic) - **3 x €26.55**
+  * Flight from LOWL to EPWA is a positioning leg (FERRY) therefore not included in the calculations

+  * €100 per PAX for the flights between 100km and 1500km
+  * €200 per PAX for the flights longer than 1500km
+The tax is expressed to be due on “aerotaxi flights”, defined in an implementing directive as passengers’ flights where the aircraft is chartered for its entire capacity. More coherently “aerotaxi flights”, also for the purposes of this tax, should be limited to aircraft having seating capacity non-exceeding 19 passengers.

-===== Austrian Air Transport Levy =====
+===== UK Air Passenger Duty Tax =====
-**Austrian Air Transport Levy (ATL)** is a **departure tax** charged on the carriage, from Austrian airports, of passengers on board aircraft with an **authorized weight of more than 2,000 Kg (4,400 lbs)**.
+**UK Air Passenger Duty Tax** (UK APD) applies to trips departing from the UK or Northern Ireland and is based on below criteria:
-Both commercial and non-commercial business aircraft operators are subject to this tax.
+  * **Destination bands**
+  * **Rate types**
+  * **Number of PAX**
-The **amount due** per passenger depends on the geographical distance of the destination country/territory from Austria.
+All the rates and allowances of the UK APD can be found [[https://www.gov.uk/guidance/rates-and-allowances-for-air-passenger-duty|here]].
-Starting from 1 September 2020, passengers will be taxed **the following rates**:
+**The calculations are performed for the whole trip.**
-  * 30 € (GCD < 350km)
+==== Destination bands ====
-  * 12 € (GCD > 350km)
+The rates vary depending on whether the trip starts in the UK or Northern Ireland and the airport of destination.
-If you carry out **domestic flights in Austria** and are liable to pay VAT for the transport of passengers, the effective tax rate will be slightly lower because VAT can be deducted from the air transport levy.
+**The trips starting in the Scottish Highlands and Island are excluded from UK APD.**
-**Under this scenario, the tax rates per passenger are:**
+There are 2 destination bands:
-  * 26.55 € (GCD < 350km)
+  * **Band ‘A’** where the distance from London/Belfast to the destination country’s capital city is between 0 to 2,000 miles
-  * 10.62 € (GCD > 350km)
+  * **Band ‘B’** where the distance from London/Belfast to the destination country’s capital city is between 2,001 miles and 5,500 miles
+  * **Band 'C'** where the distance from London/Belfast to the destination country’s capital city is over 5,500 miles
-There are also the following **exemptions** from the ATL due:
+Additionally, the calculation of UK APD for the trips **starting at Northern Ireland** take into consideration whether the flight is 'direct' or 'indirect'.
-  * children below the age of two
+The countries falling into each 'Destination band' are listed [[https://www.gov.uk/guidance/rates-and-allowances-for-air-passenger-duty|here]]
-  * animals
-  * crewmembers and maintenance personnel
-  * training flights
-  * departures following tech stops and unscheduled landings up to 24h. Departures after 24h are subject to ATL calculations
+[{{ :leon:sales:Rate Band.png?200|UK APD class in 'Fleet'settings}}]
+==== Rate types ====
-More information about the Austrian Air Tax Levy can be found [[https://www.fccaviation.com/regulation/austria/air-transport-levy|here]]
+ There are **3 rates** of duty for each destination band depending on the class of travel:
+  * **Reduced rate**
+  * **Standard rate**
+  * **Higher rate**
+The rate type can be assigned to the aircraft in the Settings > Fleet > Sales tab of the aircraft edit.
+==== Number of PAX ====
+Duty is charged on each passenger at the rate for the place where their journey ends (their final destination).
+There are **2 stages** od UKAPD tax calculations.
+The **first stage** is based on a simplified calculation and only takes into consideration the number of PAX leaving UK and the airport of destination. Based on this data the simplified tax amount is calculated.
+Once the **PAX names** are added, Leon moves on to the **second stage** of UKAPD tax calculation. Based on the PAX names on each flight, Leon compares the names and calculates the tax based on the actual PAX and their final destination.
+The **recalculation is required**. In order to perform the recalculation, you need to:
+  * Add PAX names to required flights and delete the quote
+  * Press the 'SAVE & BACK' button
+  * Edit the request again
+  * Add new quote calculation
+  * Save the request with the new quote
+If the journey is made of one flight the final destination is where that flight ends. If the journey includes more than one flight, and the flights are connected, the final destination is where the last flight ends and is not followed by a connected flight.
+<box>**It is possible to amend the amount of UK APD Tax manually. The quantity and amount fields in the 'UK Air Passenger Duty Tax' are editable.**</box>

+===== US Passenger Taxes =====
+Commercial flights arriving in the US from abroad are subject to two types of passenger taxes:
+  - **Customs Air Passenger User Fee (CUF)**
+  - **Immigration Air Passenger User Fee (IUF)**
+Air Passenger User Fees are only levied on commercial flights arriving in the US from abroad. Commercial flights are flights where passengers are carried for compensation on board civilian aircraft
+==== Rates ====
+The default rates for both taxes are as follows:
+  * CUF - $6.52 per PAX
+  * IUF - $7.00 per PAX
+==== Exemptions ====
+The following flight categories are exempted:
+  * Non-commercial flights
+  * Flights arriving from U.S. territories and possessions, such as American Samoa, Guam, the Northern Mariana Islands, Puerto Rico, and the U.S. Virgin Islands
+==== Examples ====

+===== 'US Segment Tax' =====
+**US Segment Tax** is calculated for any PAX arriving in the US, departing from the US, and flying domestically within the US.
+**Calculation** of the 'US Segment Tax' are as per below:
+**US Segment Tax = PAX x RATE**
+where:
+  * **PAX** - number of PAX arriving in the US, departing from the US, and flying domestically within the US
+  * **RATE** - rate per PAX for 2023 is **$4.80** and for 2024 is **$5.00**
+==== Example ====
+[{{ :leon:sales:pax-tax:us_segment_tax.png?300|'US Segment Tax' calculations}}]
+The presented schedule consists of 5 flights, 3 of which are subject to the 'US Segment Tax' calculations:
+  * **KMIA** - CYYZ - 3 PAX
+  * CYYZ - **KJFK** - 2 PAX
+  * **KJFK** - **KBOS** - 2 PAX
+The rate for the flights in 2024 is **$5.00**.
+Based on the above, the calculations are as follows:
+**(3+2+2) x $5.00 = 7 x $5.00 = $35.00**
