The Sharjah Executive Council (SEC) has issued Resolution No. 12 for year 2016 on the collection of an Dh35 departure fee at the Sharjah International Airport for the use of airport facilities and services.

Referred to as the airport facilities' fee, it has to be paid by all passengers, including transit passengers, who leave the Emirate of Sharjah through the airport.

Meanwhile, passengers under the age of two, aircraft crews on duty, and transit passengers who have the same number of arrival and departure flights, will be exempted.

The decision was taken during the SEC session chaired by  Sheikh Abdullah bin Salem bin Sultan Al Qasimi, Deputy Ruler of Sharjah and Deputy Chairman of the Executive Council.
