LEGISLATION
Aircraft Registration in the United States of America is prescribed under section 501 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 (49 U.S.C. 1401), and is published as Part 47 Aircraft Registration of the Federal Aviation Administration’s Federal Aircraft Regulations (the FAR).
Violation of the FAR is a federal offense and punishable by both fine imprisonment. FAR Paragraph 47 subparagraph (b) states that “An aircraft may be registered only by and in the name of its owner”, and FAR Paragraph 47.43 states that an aircraft registration is invalid if, 1. Subparagraph (2), “The applicant is not the owner.” 2. Subparagraph (3), “The applicant is not qualified to submit an application under this part.” 3. Subparagraph (4), “The interest of the applicant was created by a transaction that was not entered into in good faith, but rather was made to avoid (with or without the owner’s knowledge) compliance with section 501 of the Federal Aviation Act of 1958 (49 U.S.C. 1401).
United States Law requires that any aircraft registered with the FAA, which operates outside of the USA for more than 40% of its flying hours during any six calendar month period, be “legally owned” by a “Citizen of the United States” Under the definitions of the law, the below listed entities or individuals qualify to own and operate an aircraft permanently outside of the United States:
1. A “Trust” with one or more Trustees, of which all Trustees must be U.S. Citizens or,
2. A “Corporation” organized under the law of one of the states of the United States, where
the “president” is a U.S. Citizen, where “two-thirds or more” of the “board of directors” or any
other “managing officers” are U.S. Citizens, and where a minimum of “75 percent of the voting interest” is owned or controlled by persons who are U.S. Citizens.
3. A “Limited Liability Company” organized under the law of one of the states of the United
States, where the “president” is a U.S. Citizen, and where “two-thirds or more of the appointed officers” and the “designated managers” are U.S. Citizens, and where a minimum of “75 percent of the membership voting interest” is owned or controlled by persons who are U.S. Citizens.
