The Nigerian Federal Government has granted Messrs NAEBI Dynamic Concepts Limited the exclusive right to collect helicopter landing levy at all aerodromes, helipads, airstrips, FSPOs, FSOs and oil platforms in Nigeria.
The Minister of Aviation and Aerospace Development, Mr. Festus Keyamo SAN signed a letter to all operators and stakeholders of civilian helicopter operations in Nigeria, directing them to fully comply with this mandate by allowing total access to Messrs NAEBI Dynamic Concepts Limited for the collection of this levy, effective immediately.
The decision to grant exclusive rights to Messrs NAEBI Dynamic Concepts Limited to collect helicopter landing levy has been welcomed by the aviation industry. The move is seen as a significant step towards improving the aviation industry in Nigeria. Also, it is expected to boost the country’s economic growth.

The Ministry of Aviation and Aerospace Development further assured stakeholders of its commitment to monitor compliance with this mandate closely and will take swift action against any violation. Non-compliance with this directive will be considered a breach of the mandate and will be met with appropriate sanctions.
