CAAS and IATA create a registry to report SAF emissions cuts

The parties hope to launch the SAF registry in H1 2025.

The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) and the International Air Transport Association (IATA) will develop a registry to track, record, and account for the emissions reductions from Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) use.

The registry aims to accelerate the use of SAF by authoritatively accounting and reporting emissions reductions.

IATA is consulting with airlines, government authorities, international organisations, OEMs, fuel producers and suppliers, airports, and corporate travel management companies to develop the registry, with hopes to launch in H1 2025.

The collaboration is one of the initiatives under the Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) signed by CAAS and IATA this year to support the growth of aviation in Singapore and the Asia-Pacific region. 

As part of the Singapore Sustainable Air Hub Blueprint launched by CAAS in February, flights departing Singapore must use SAF starting in 2026.

Initially, a 1% SAF uplift target will be set, with an SAF levy introduced for purchasing SAF to meet this goal.

The blueprint also includes a centralised SAF procurement for the Singapore air hub.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

If you've been wondering whether SBR could work for your company — yes, probably.

A lot of the companies we partner with started as readers. They'd been following our coverage for a while, saw their own customers and competitors in it, and eventually asked the obvious question: could we do something with you? The answer is usually yes. The shape of it depends on what you're trying to do.


The options are broader than most people assume — thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. Some partners use one channel; most use a mix. We figure out the right combination by starting with your brief, not with our rate card.


So if the question has been on your mind, here's the easy way to ask it.

We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how. It's a better use of everyone's time.
