Why It Matters
FAA registration isn’t just a formality — it’s a legal requirement that affects title, airworthiness, international clearance, and more. Errors or delays in registration can cause costly operational downtime, failed transactions, or even regulatory penalties. We work quickly, accurately, and in close alignment with FAA standards to ensure smooth filings and timely updates.
Whether you're managing a fleet or buying your first aircraft, our administrative support ensures your registration is in order — and stays that way.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I register an aircraft with the FAA without being a U.S. citizen?
The FAA requires aircraft registrants to be U.S. citizens, but non-citizens can register aircraft in the U.S. through a valid trust or corporation. We offer support for these filings under our Aircraft Owner Trust service.
Can you help me transfer ownership of an aircraft?
Yes — we assist with the paperwork required to complete a change in ownership and file it with the FAA. This includes reviewing the Bill of Sale (AC Form 8050-2) and ensuring proper signatures and documentation are included.
How long does the FAA registration process take?
Timelines vary based on the FAA backlog and the type of registration, but most standard registrations are processed within 3–6 weeks. Temporary operating authority is typically granted immediately upon correct filing.
Can I request a specific N-number?
Yes — we can reserve and assign custom N-numbers based on FAA availability. Fees may apply for special combinations or expedited handling.
Can you help with international aircraft registration issues, like importing or exporting an aircraft?
Yes — we assist with the FAA deregistration process for export and help ensure your paperwork is properly prepared for foreign aviation authorities, as well as doing the opposite for imports. We also support foreign buyers registering in the U.S. through trust or corporate structures.
