Definitions (IATA Reso 012) Banker's Buying Rate (BBR) Means the rate at which, for purpose of the transfer of funds through banking channels (i.e. other than transactions in bank notes, travellers cheques and similar banking instruments), a bank will purchase a given amount of foreign currency exchange for one unit (or units) of the national currency of the country, in which the exchange transaction takes place. Note: Where no such banker’s rates are available, the rates published by the IATA Clearing House may be used in lieu of such bankers buying rates. In future, the applicable banker’s rates or the sources where such rates applicable will be published weekly or monthly by the carriers. Banker's Selling Rate (BSR) Means the rate at which, for the purpose of transfer of funds through banking channels (i.e. other than transactions in bank notes, travellers cheques and similar banking instruments), a bank will sell a given amount of foreign currency in exchange for one unit (or units) of the national currency of the country, in which the exchange transaction takes place. Country of Commencement of Transportation The country from which travel on the first international sector takes place. Country of Payment The country where payment is made by the purchaser to the carrier or its agent. Currency of the Country of Payment The currency in which international fares are denominated. Date of Transportation The date of issuance of the ticket, MCO or PTA. Local Currency Fares Fares and related charges expressed in the currency of the country of commencement of travel.

NUC values Fares, add-ons and related charges are published in the Passenger Air Tariff in NUC values. These values will be revised every January, April, July and October together with the factors shown in the NUC Conversion Factors Table. The NUC value for a local currency amount not published in this tariff can be obtained by dividing such local currency amount by the conversion factor shown in the NUC Conversion Factors Table for the country in which the currency is denominated. Express the resultant NUC amount to two decimal places, ignoring any further decimal places. When excess baggage charges are paid in a currency other than the local currency, the local currency amount must be converted to the currency of payment at the BBR. “Other charges” established in local currency amounts and shown on the ticket are converted to the currency of the country of sale at the BSR. When payment is made in a currency other than the currency of the country of payment, the equivalent local currency amount in the country of payment will be collected at the BBR.

Construction of unpublished fares Fares in the Passenger Air Tariff are published in local currency and NUC’s. If a through fare for a particular journey is not published, and therefore requires the combination of local currency fares (or the construction of fares by use of add-on amounts) on the same ticket, construct the through fare for such journey as follows. •

1. Add the published NUC amounts for the sectors involved.

•

2. Multiply the resultant total by the exchange rate in the NUC Conversion Factors Table for the country of commencement of travel. Take the resultant amount to one decimal place beyond the rounding unit indicated in the table.

•

3. Round the resultant total in accordance with the NUC Conversion Factors Table.

Payment of Local Currency Fares (IATA Reso 024e)

Payment in the Country of Commencement of Travel - in the currency of the country of commencement of travel or - in any currency not marked with a sign in the NUC conversion factor’s table. Convert at the BBR in effect on the date of ticket issuance Payment Outside the Country of Commencement of Travel Payment is made as follows: - convert the total amount to be collected, expressed in the currency of the country of commencement of travel, into the currency of the country of payment at the applicable BSR in effect on the date of transaction. - in case of rebooking/reissue: convert the rebooking fee and any difference that might occur in the fare amount due to a change in fare to the currency of the country of collection at the BSR in effect at the time of rebooking/reissue. The passenger will need to pay any fare increase but also is entitled to a refund of fare in case of fare decrease. in case a refund is due convert the fare difference to the currency of the country of collection at the BSR in effect at the time of the original issue. Local legal or fiscal requirements may overrule these regulations. 1. Scenario: no difference in fare occurs In case the recalculation of the fare results in the same fare amount (no fare difference) the original equivalent amount paid remains unchanged even in case of change in BSR.
