Hong Kong International Airport can apply for the refund of the advance
payment of the exempted Air Passenger Departure Tax (APDT) at
SkyPier. After checking in at SkyPier, each sea-to-air passenger will receive a refund form with the refund verification stamp and initial from the airline staff. Passengers can then collect the HK$120 (APDT is $80 before 9 Jan 2004) cash refund at the refund counter. As the refund counter at SkyPier only accepts same day refund of APDT, passengers who have already received the refund form but not collected the refund cash due to any reason should contact their airlines for refund. Passengers who meet the requirements but have not received the refund form after departure can complete a APDT refund application form provided by Civil Aviation Department, and mail back to the Civil Aviation Department together with necessary documents to apply for refund. |
