This page provides guidance to holders of UK Part 66 licences on how to apply for a change of details, such as name, nationality or address.

Pre-requisites

You must hold an existing UK Part 66 Aircraft Maintenance Licence.

You must be able to provide evidence to support your request in the form of valid passport, change of name deed poll and /or marriage certificate, not required for change of address.

How do I apply?



Once all requirements have been met, please complete the Aircraft Maintenance Licence online application form on the CAA Portal.

If you have not used the CAA Customer Portal before, you will need to create an account before you can access the online application form. Once registered, you can start your application by clicking on the ‘Aircraft maintenance licence applications’ link under the list of available services.

What do I need to include with my application?



As part of the application, you will be asked to upload the following supporting documentation:

  • Proof of your ID (This can be a certified copy of your valid passport/full UK photographic driving licence, or a close-up photo of you holding your ID in which your face and ID are clearly visible). If the CAA has a valid ID document on file for you, you will not be asked to supply this again
  • Certified copies of the appropriate Exam Certificates completed for the additional category/sub-category applied for.
  • A copy of the EU/EASA Organisation Approval Certificate (Form 11) valid at the time the course was completed, (only for applications where training was completed with a non-UK EASA organisation)
  • Certified copies of the logbook/worksheets showing the evidence of the practical maintenance experience gained.
  • Recommendation Form (SRG1029), ensuring that it has been completed by your Quality Manager in support of your application (the recommendation can also be completed by: Part 145 FAR 145, CAMO, CAO, or a UK Part 66 Engineer licence holder).

For guidance on who can certify your documents or for examples of acceptable ID, please refer to Supporting documentation for Engineer licensing applications.

You are required to return your original Part 66 licence to the CAA before we can start the application assessment process. As soon as you have submitted this online application, please post your original licence to:

Civil Aviation Authority
Engineer Licensing, SSC
Aviation House
Beehive Ring Road
Crawley
West Sussex

Please quote your online application reference number when sending your licence to us, so that we can match your licence to your application.

Please note that as long as you have confirmation that you have submitted your application to the CAA, you can continue to exercise the privileges of your licence after you have posted it to us.

Costs



The fee is £57.00 (if applying to change both name and nationality at the same time it would be £57.00 per transaction).

There is currently no fee for a change of address.

If a change of personal details generates a change to the privileges held on a UK Part-66 Aircraft Maintenance licence, your licence will be issued for a further five-year validity and will therefore be subject to an additional proportionate fee. If this is the case, you will be contacted again at a later date.

If you are applying for any other additional services, the appropriate fee will also apply.

An additional fee will be payable if you wish your documents to be returned by secure courier.

The Scheme of Charges (Personnel licensing) provides further details.
