M.A.904 Airworthiness review of
aircraft imported into the Union
Regulation
(EU) 2022/1360
(a) When importing an aircraft onto a Member
State register from a third country or from a regulatory system where
Regulation (EU) 2018/1139 does not apply, the applicant shall:
1. apply to the competent authority of the
Member State of registry for the issuance of a new airworthiness certificate
in accordance with Annex I (Part 21) or, as applicable, Annex Ib (Part 21
Light) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012;
2. for aircraft other than new, have an
airworthiness review carried out in accordance with point M.A.901;
3. have all maintenance carried out to
comply with the AMP approved in accordance with point M.A.302.
(b) When satisfied that the aircraft is in
compliance with the relevant requirements, the organisation performing the
airworthiness review, shall send a documented recommendation for the issuance
of an airworthiness review certificate to the competent authority of the
Member State of registry.
(c) The owner of the aircraft shall allow
access to the aircraft for inspection by the competent authority of the Member
State of registry.
(d) The competent authority of the Member
State of registry shall issue an airworthiness certificate when it is
satisfied that the aircraft complies with the requirements of Annex I (Part
21) or, as applicable, Annex Ib (Part 21 Light) to Regulation (EU) No 748/2012.
(e) That competent authority of the Member
State shall also issue the airworthiness review certificate. The certificate
shall be valid for 1 year, unless the competent authority decides to reduce
the period of validity for reasons of aviation safety.
Importing aircraft into the EU requires a new airworthiness certificate from the member state's authority. A mandatory airworthiness review and compliant maintenance program are essential. Upon satisfactory inspection, a recommendation is sent to the authority, who then issues both the airworthiness and a one-year airworthiness review certificate.
