1.   Aircraft registered in the Isle of Man are only for private and corporate use, not commercial air transport or aerial work.

2.   All aircraft for registration in the Isle of Man must have an EASA Type Certificate.

3.   Review the website at www.iomaircraftregistry.com for the Legislation, Scheme of Charges and Application Forms.

4.   The Air Navigation (Isle of Man) Order 2007, Part 1, Article 3 - Registration of aircraft in the Isle of Man - lists qualified persons, a copy of which is in Registry Publication (RP) 2.

5.   If an out-of-sequence Aircraft Registration Mark is required contact the Aircraft Registry to confirm availability of the requested Mark before completing the application form. If an out-of sequence request is not received the next sequential registration mark will be allocated.
