The Asian Business Aviation Association (AsBAA) has launched its Illegal Charter Reporting System (ICRS), Asia's first initiative to directly address and combat the serious threats to air charter and the public that are often difficult to identify due to the use of deceptive and convoluted agreements.

AsBAA began formally collecting and reporting suspected illegal charter to civil aviation authorities in August 2021. This initiative is supported by a sub-committee of legal advisors led by global law firm HFW, partner associations and members of the press.

AsBAA's illegal charter task force seeks to work with civil aviation authorities to provide guidance on identifying and steps to avoiding illegal operations, and with legislative bodies to better equip civil aviation authorities in combating this long-standing safety issue. It pledges to educate members and the public through campaigns and resources, such as with the "HFW and AsBAA Survey: Illegal Charter", and will assist civil aviation authorities in enforcement through data collection and reporting, leveraging existing data sources to help focus efforts. Finally, it will help the industry provide civil aviation authorities with illegal charter reports that provide more actionable data.

In 2020, AsBAA became a signatory to the Air Charter Safety Alliance, a coalition of international aviation groups with a joint global initiative to address a growing concern among members and industry.
