To assist transit passengers who arrive at the Hong Kong International Airport SkyPier by ferry for direct onward travel by air to claim cash refunds of advance Air Passenger Departure Tax payments, a new Refund Counter will be set up at the SkyPier on April 26.
The new refund counter manned by the Ferry Terminal Operator is in SkyPier bus-waiting lounge. It can be easily accessed by transit passengers who wish to claim the Air Passenger Departure Tax refund at the SkyPier when transiting there.
The Civil Aviation Department said, under the existing Air Passenger Departure Tax Ordinance, sea-to-air transit passengers are exempt from the tax.
It said the new refund service will assist and encourage passengers from the Mainland and Macau to make use of the airport, adding it will further enhance Hong Kong's development as a regional and international aviation hub.
