[ ATO MEMORANDUM CIRCULAR, November 21, 1994 ]

ALL REQUESTS/APPLICATIONS FOR CLEARANCES, PERMITS, CERTIFICATIONS, ETC. SHALL ONLY BE ISSUED UPON PRESENTATION OF THE OFFICIAL RECEIPTS OF PAYMENT FOR THE CURRENT AND APPROPRIATE FEES AND CHARGES INVOLVED

Likewise, persons and/or agencies requesting for clearance, permit, certification from ATO, have been issued without paying the corresponding fees payments prescribed for such issuance.

In order to preclude the recurrence of these non-payment of fees and charges in the future and to meet in due time that amortization costs of modernizing our aviation safety, air traffic and air navigational systems, henceforth, all requests/applications for clearances, permits, certifications, etc. shall only be issued upon presentation of the official receipt of payment for the current and appropriate fees and charges involved.

For strict compliance.
