Kerosene tax
File:Aircraft fueling vehicle.jpg|thumb|250px|Tank truck at Schiphol Airport. Refuelling can be taxed throughout the EU.]]Article 24 of the Chicago Convention stipulates that when flying from one contracting state to another, the kerosene that is already on board aircraft may not be taxed by the state where the aircraft lands, nor by a state through whose airspace the aircraft has flown.{{rp|16, 22}} This was intended to prevent double taxation.{{rp|22}} However, there is no tax regulation in the Chicago Convention to refuelling the aircraft before departure.WEB,weblink Taxing aviation fuels in the EU, Jasper Faber and Aoife OâLeary, CE Delft, European Federation for Transport and Environment, Transport and Environment, November 2018, 14 June 2020, {{rp|16}}The Chicago Convention does not preclude a kerosene tax on domestic flights and on refueling before international flights.{{rp|16}} Although the ICAO has produced various policy documents suggesting that no taxes of any kind should be placed on aviation fuel,{{refn|group=note|For example, a 1999 resolution of the ICAO Council stated: "fuel ... taken on board for consumption by an aircraft from a contracting state in the territory of another contracting State departing for the territory of any other State shall be exempt from all customs or other duties..." It broadly interpreted the scope of the Article 24 exemption to include "import, export, excise, sales, consumption and internal duties and taxes of all kinds levied upon... fuel". The stated reasons for these kerosene tax exemptions were: "[T]he imposition of national or local taxes on the acquisition of fuel... may have anadverse economic and competitive impact on international air transport operations. (...)".ICAOâs Policies on Taxation in the Field of International Air Transport, ICAO Doc. 8632-C/968, 3d rd. (2000) This resolution was not legally binding.{{rp|23}}}} none of these are legally binding, and they are not found in the Chicago Convention itself.{{rp|22â23}}Although there are numerous bilateral agreements, so-called 'air services agreements', which make more extensive agreements, including often tax exemption when refueling an aircraft that has come from another contracting state, these are independent from the Chicago Convention; moreover, some air services agreements do allow for the taxation of fuels.{{rp|6â7}}See also
