The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) is Singapore's civil aviation authority and a statutory board under the Ministry of Transport of the Government of Singapore. Its head office is located on the fourth storey of Singapore Changi Airport's Terminal 2.[2]
Established on 1 September 1984, the CAAS regulates civilian air traffic within the airspace jurisdiction of the Republic. It also helps enable the growth of the air hub and aviation industry in Singapore, promotes safe industry practices and engages in civilian air-service agreements with air-service operators. This includes the usage of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) such as drones and quadcopters by individuals or organisations. Agency also operates the Air Traffic Control Tower, providing air navigation services to ensure faultless movements of civilian aircraft at Singapore's airports and in the Singapore flight information region (FIR).
CAAS supports and controls the Singapore Aviation Academy (est. 1958).
CAAS also issues revenue stamps to pay for the passenger service charge on flights.
In July 2017, CAAS and the European Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) entered into a working arrangement to recognize each other's certifications.[3]
CAAS is led by Director-General Mr Kevin Shum, with Mr Edmund Cheng serving as the board's Chairman.
