RE: Request for Guideline Acceptability of FAA Form 8130-3 Export Form in EU
Dear Keith,
The form 8130-3 is filled once by you for each unit or each lot produced. In
accordance with the old bilateral agreements it will be accepted in all EU member
states including the specific areas having the specific tax status like Canary Island,
Norway, Switzerland, and Iceland.
As the import country is not mentioned at all on the certificate it is issued once by you
when manufacturing the unit, like our Form One. We assume that the 8130-3 will be
accepted in all the named countries based on the grandfathered existing bilateral
agreement with the main players in EU and the US. Due to the fact that the new
bilateral is not in place we cannot guarantee that, especially as some countries seem
not to be accepted by the US side to be eligible to export into the US.
Unless you state “FOR DOMESTIC SHIPMENTS ONLY,” on the Form 8130-3 the
Form issued at the end of the production process is intended to be used for import into
the EU system as well. In general the form is issued after production and kept for the
life time of the unit.
Please come back to me if there are complaints from the European customers.
Best regards
Friedhelm
