Official Sudan Overflight & Landing Permits Processing Fees

According to the Sudan Civil Aviation Authority (SCAA), charges apply for air navigation / over-flight services rather than a flat processing fee. For example:
  • Over-flying fees on the ATS route ALEBA-TOKAR: aircraft under 30 tons = 750 CHF; 30 tons or more = 1,200 CHF.
  • For other routes: less than 50 tons = 1,800 CHF; 50–199 tons = 2,400 CHF; 200 tons or more = 2,700 CHF. AIM
Thus, while there is no universal “no fee” policy, specific fees are listed by weight categories.
