Commercial Ground Transportation Policy
AdComp: Ground Transportation Operator Payment System
A non-refundable $50 application fee is required for new operators, plus a $50 registration fee for each vehicle tagged. The registration fee consists of a $5 Decal Fee, $25 AVI Transponder Tag Fee, and a $20 Commercial Vehicle Registration Fee. These charges will be added to your AVI account once the vehicle(s) are tagged.
All vehicles must be tagged prior to beginning operations at the airport. Operators who are found to have tampered with this equipment in any way are subject to penalties as laid out in the Commercial Ground Transportation Policy.
Make sure that you follow these steps exactly to prevent process delays. Also, be patient. The typical time to complete a new permit is at least 30 days from the date all documents are received. You may NOT under any circumstance operate at the airport without a permit or while you are waiting to be approved. Should you have any additional questions, you may contact Ground Transportation at groundtransportation@flynashville.com
Please note that once you have been permitted you still have an obligation to provide The Authority updated documents periodically. This includes notifying The Authority of any change in company name, ownership, address, vehicle or any other relevant information. Operators who fail to do so will face penalties including fines, suspensions, & permit revocation.
