The page has been in force since 28 December 2023, so current rates need a check.
Unconfirmed figures. The amounts on this page come from the ASECNA aeronautical publication for Mali, page dated 28 December 2023. We have not found a newer official notice to confirm them, so every charge is marked Unconfirmed. Check your ticket receipt or the airline before you travel.
