Canada’s transportation sector relies on, and benefits from, services provided by Transport Canada. We are proposing changes to fees for aeronautical product design approvals, and we want your feedback.
We ensure aeronautical products approved for use in Canada conform to national design standards. In Canada, more than 1,500 new and modified aeronautical product designs are approved each year.
Section 4.4 of the Aeronautics Act allows us to charge fees for these approvals. You can find a list of the current fees in section 104, Schedule V of the Canadian Aviation Regulations (CAR 104).
We are proposing changes to CAR 104, Schedule V. They include:
changing fees to better reflect the cost of providing services to approve aeronautical product designs. These range from designs for aircrafts or engines to the installation of Wi-Fi antennas;
removing the hard caps on hourly fees;
converting fixed fees to hybrid fees; and
introducing a range of new fees related to product certification, as described in the Fee Modernization Proposal.
In addition to providing your comments in the "Have Your Say" tab, you can also upload Word or PDF document(s) with your feedback in the "Submissions" tab.

We’re
proposing to convert all fixed fees to new, hybrid fees. Hybrid fees would
begin as fixed fees, until a pre-established level of effort threshold (calculated
in hours) is reached, after which the service would be billed at an hourly
rate.

Consider how many specialist hours Transport
Canada should spend on a project before we charge on an hourly basis. Also
think about whether the level of effort threshold should be different depending
on the service.

We’re proposing fees for activities such as
post-certification design changes that affect design approval documents. The
proposed fees would be hybrid fees.
