Submit your passenger numbers
Licence holders should report their monthly, quarterly and annual passenger numbers online. The APC payment will be
calculated automatically once you complete and submit the online report.
Documents and forms
Manual reporting
If you will not be using the online facility to report your figures, you can still submit reports by post. These
forms can be downloaded on this page. Simply check which category of licence you fit into below for the relevant forms
and advice on when these need to be submitted.
Every licence holder has a statutory duty to pay the APC within six weeks of the end of each reporting period.
Direct debit payment
The CAA’s preferred method for collection of your APC will be by Direct Debit, where your payments will be collected
automatically upon submission of your returns.
You can still pay by this method if you submit your returns by post. To do so, simply complete the Direct Debit
mandate and send it to the address provided.
