Equivalent fare paid refers to the value of a fare converted into the currency of the country where the payment is made when the original published fare is filed in a different currency.
Airlines often publish fares in one currency while travelers purchase tickets in another country using a different local currency. In these situations, the original fare is converted into the applicable payment currency using approved exchange rates, and the resulting amount is recorded as the equivalent fare paid on the ticket.
This standardizes international ticket pricing and allows airlines to sell fares globally while still accepting payment in local currencies.
