You will need this permission if you are the operator of a foreign registered aircraft that intends to undertake a non-scheduled (charter) flight into or over Australian airspace and territory.
A non-scheduled flight is a flight that is not made under the authority of an International Airline Licence and includes, but is not limited to, operations such as:
- private flights
- overflights
- passenger and cargo services.
If you intend to conduct more than eight non-scheduled flights in a twelve-month period, you will need to apply for a Foreign Aircraft Air Operator's Certificate.
