Suvarnabhumi Airport management will review the possibility of discounting storage fees for outgoing agricultural products.
Exporters have complained that the slow process of goods checking and verification spoilt perishable goods at the airport’s customs-free zone.
They have also complained about the one baht per kilogramme charge for storage, which had not been collected at the former Bangkok International Airport at Don Muang.
Responding to these complaints, Suvarnabhumi Airport general manager Somchai Sawasdeepon said that Airports of Thailand Plc (AOT) which operates the airport is finding space to be allocated specifically for agricultural goods. More parking spaces will also be made available to facilitate handling of perishable goods.
Mr. Somchai said that AOT will review the possibility of discounting the storage rate to less than one baht.
He said AOT has invested Bt4 billion (about US$107 million) to develop the customs-free zone for duty-free goods to transit, and that such a facility did not exist in Don Muang. (TNA)
