KUALA LUMPUR: Passenger Service Charges (PSC) rate for international destinations beyond Asean at Kuala Lumpur International Airport 2 will be RM73 effective January 1, 2018, said Malaysian Aviation Commission (MAVCOM).
MAVCOM said the revised PSC is the same as those at other airports in Malaysia.
“The PSC rates in Malaysia remain amongst the lowest in the world,” it said in a statement.
Following the Commission’s revision of the PSC announced in October 2016, only the PSC rate applicable at KLIA2 for international destinations beyond Asean was pegged lower than those at other airports in Malaysia.
The PSC rate at KLIA2 for such destinations was set at RM50, while the rate set for other airports in Malaysia was RM73.
MAVCOM said the new PSC rate will be applicable to tickets issued from January 1, 2018. Tickets issued prior to this date will not be subjected to the new rate even if the date of travel takes place on or after January 1, 2018, it added.
