United Kingdom Third Country Operator Certificates (TCO) – Business Aviation Guide
Summary
As a result of BREXIT, at the end of 2022, the United Kingdom Civil Aviation Authority (UK CAA) no longer accepts European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) Third Country Operator Certificates (TCOs) as the basis for applying for a UK charter permit. A UK TCO certificate is a document that certifies that an airline from a non-European Union (EU) country meets the necessary safety standards and is authorized to operate flights into and out of the United Kingdom. To obtain a TCO certificate, an airline must demonstrate compliance with the necessary safety and security standards established by the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO). This certificate ensures that the airline operates safely and meets the necessary regulatory requirements to fly in and out of the UK. It’s taking in some cases two months from submission to approval and there is no miracle solution as CAA has a very full inbox with the volume of applications and the huge amounts of information each operation has to submit and then have assessed.
