Import Tips & Compliance
• Verify FAA TSO authorization and include Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) documentation to prove civil aircraft compatibility
• Ensure export licenses from origin country comply with ITAR/EAR for aviation electronics; declare precise technical specs
• Avoid misclassification as general GPS by specifying aeronautical certification; common pitfall is undervaluing avionics bundles
