Tax Breakdown

LGCY bookings include a detailed breakdown of taxes in the total payable amount. This helps verify if taxes like PH Travel Tax and LI Terminal Fee are included. Please note that Scoot, even if sourced under LGCY, does not include the PH Travel Tax yet.

Here is a sample tax breakdown for a PH-LGCY international flight of an adult passenger.

The breakdown is also useful when booking a Child (CHD) for international travel. A reduced travel tax (e.g., PHP 810) indicates that you must provide a Reduced Travel Tax Certificate as mandated by the Tourism Infrastructure and Enterprise Zone Authority or TIEZA.

Here is a sample tax breakdown for a PH-LGCY international flight of an adult and child passengers. Notice that the PH tax is reduced.
