Sample 3

The example below shows the costs the authorities may recover from the carrier in a situation which involves an inadmissible person to be escorted by the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee. No accommodation costs are charged to the carrier because the inadmissible person was transported within 48 hours after the date in the booking request indicated as the desired removal date. The total costs are a mere € 13.000. The main part is for escorting the alien person.

The rates have been laid down in law, in the List of rates (Annex 22 to the Aliens Regulations 2000). The rates used in this sample are from January 2014, since then the prices have gone up.

The number of escorts required is calculated based on the Matrix for use of escorts of the Royal Netherlands Marechaussee.

In case of variable costs, such as the costs of a laissez-passer, the bills of the actually incurred costs will be attached to the invoice.
