Navigating FAA Regulations Worldwide

FAA Compliance Experts

Regulatory compliance is non-negotiable in aviation — and navigating FAA requirements from outside the United States presents unique challenges for international operators, governments, and VIP private jet clients. IAS provides specialized FAA compliance services backed by our FAA-appointed International Designated Airworthiness Representative (DAR-T) — one of a select few professionals worldwide authorized to issue FAA airworthiness certificates on behalf of the Federal Aviation Administration. Our FAA expertise also supports our VIP aircraft acquisitions and lease management services.

IAS’s FAA DAR-T appointment means international VIP aircraft transactions can be completed with the efficiency and authority of having an FAA representative directly engaged — eliminating the delays and complications of working through intermediaries.
