GM1 Article 14 Application for a
certificate
ED Decision 2022/022/R
(a) The provision of U-space services and single CIS is subject to certification by the relevant competent authority.
(b) The competent authority may be:
(1) the national competent authority of the Member States where the USSPs and, when designated, the single CIS providers have their principal place of business;
(2) the Agency for USSPs and single CIS providers from third countries;
(3) the Agency, at the request of the USSPs or the single CIS providers that provide services in more than one Member State, following a coordination process described in Article 64 (at the request of the organisation) or Article 65 (at the request of the national competent authority) of Regulation (EU) 2018/1139.
(c) The certification scheme aims to preserve public interest, most notably in terms of safety. The certificate confirms that the single CIS provider or the USSP meets the requirements of Regulation (EU) 2021/664 as regards the provision of specific U-space services in the U-space airspace, commensurate with the risk associated with the U-space services they provide. The certificate specifies the rights and obligations of the single CIS provider or the USSP, with particular regard to safety.
(d) Annexes VI and VII to Regulation (EU) 2021/664 establish the certificate form templates for the USSP and the single CIS provider respectively. By introducing this single certificate concept, all the privileges of a USSP are to be mentioned in the attachment to the certificate specifying the type of U-space services, and the respective conditions and associated limitations. For the CIS provider, the certificate form does not include an attachment specifying the type of U-space services, conditions and limitations of the certificate because the CIS provider should always provide the required CIS in the U-space airspace for which the CIS provider has been designated.
U-space service provision and single Common Information Service (CIS) require certification from a competent authority, ensuring public safety. This certificate confirms compliance with EU regulations, outlining rights, obligations, and service-specific conditions. Standardized certificate templates exist for U-space service providers (USSPs) and CIS providers.
