Import Tips & Compliance

• Obtain FAA or EASA certification documentation to verify civil aircraft compatibility and airworthiness

• Declare exact material composition (e.g

• carbon fiber percentage) to avoid reclassification under 8807.90

• Ensure supplier provides traceability certificates for aerospace-grade composites to meet FAA Part 145 requirements
