Air Passenger Duty

The question

To ask the Chancellor of the Exchequer, whether she has plans to amend the rates of Air Passenger Duty.

Answered by James Murray

At Autumn Budget 2024, the Government announced APD rates for 2026-27, including a partial adjustment to help compensate for two recent years of inflation that was higher than expected.

As with all taxes, the Chancellor makes decisions on APD rates at fiscal events in the context of public finances.
