On April 19, 1995, the FAA amended Title 14 of the Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) part 187, “Fees for Certification Services and Approvals Performed Outside the United States” (60 FR 19628-01, April 19, 1995), which established the methodology for determining these charges. In this rule, the FAA stated it would publish these fees in an AC. Refer to Appendix A to Part 187, section (n). The FAA reviews the actual costs incurred in the services listed in Appendix 1 at the beginning of each fiscal year. The FAA will do this using the same fee methodology described in part 187 appendix A. The FAA will amend the schedule of charges on an annual basis to either increase or decrease fees, as needed. The FAA will publish each amended schedule in the Federal Register and as a revision to this AC. AC 187-1 may be found at https://www.faa.gov/​regulations_​policies/​advisory_​circulars/​.
