Import Tips
• Obtain ITAR export licenses from the US State Department prior to import, as military aircraft are defense articles
• Verify unladen weight certification excluding crew, fuel, and non-permanent equipment per subheading notes
• Prepare end-user certificates to comply with AECA regulations and avoid re-export restrictions
