The first step in the registration process is to reserve a registration mark. To reserve a registration mark, fill out the form «application for reservation of a registration mark» and send it by email or post to the Swiss Aircraft Register at the Federal Office of Civil Aviation (FOCA).
Once received, your application will be checked for completeness and compliance with the applicable regulations. If the application can be approved, the registration will be assigned and the administrative and technical checklists required for the registration of the aircraft will be sent, together with the decision on the costs in accordance with the FOCA Fees Ordinance (FeeO-FOCA). The relevant registration forms can be downloaded from our website.
Registration marks are assigned by the FOCA. We will try to accommodate requests where possible (the last two letters or last three numbers). Please send your request to the Swiss Aircraft Register in form of a prioritised list under «Remarks» on the form. You can check the available registration marks in the publicly accessible Online aircraft register.
