Taiwan's international passenger fuel surcharges will be reduced from June 7 as aviation fuel prices decline, the Civil Aviation Administration (CAA) said Monday.

The surcharge for short-haul flights operated by Taiwanese carriers will drop to $35 from $45, while that for long-haul routes will decrease to $91 from $117. This came after international aviation fuel prices declined to $160.10 per barrel from $208.78 per barrel.

The CAA said the adjustment follows its fuel surcharge mechanism, which links charges to fuel price movements, and has asked airlines to disclose relevant information to help passengers better understand the calculation basis.
