Registration & Ownership - Aircraft - Movable Property

Legal recording of procedures and obligations in the transfer and registration of ownership of aircraft between parties.

A registration and ownership transfer structure regulates how aircraft are legally transferred, how ownership rights are registered with competent authorities, and how risks and responsibilities are clearly established.

This arrangement covers, among other things:

  • Procedures for transferring aircraft between seller and buyer.
  • Legal transfer of ownership and registration with national or international aviation authorities.
  • Risk transition and liability from the moment of transfer.
  • Verification and review of aircraft documentation, registration and technical data.
  • Warranties and representations regarding ownership and any encumbrances on the aircraft.
  • Administrative obligations for registration and documentation of the transfer.

We prepare tailored documentation adapted to:

  • Private or commercial transfer of aircraft.
  • New or used airplanes, helicopters and other aircraft.
  • Situations involving financing, leasing or other security structures.
  • International transfer or export of aircraft.
  • Specific agreements on ownership, use and registration between parties.

The transfer and registration structure is legally established so that all rights, obligations and procedures are clear, enforceable and consistent within the entire contractual and commercial context.

Scope of Documentation

The engagement may include, among other things:

  • Recording of transfer procedures and ownership transfer.
  • Verification and review of aircraft identification and technical data.
  • Provisions regarding risk transition and liability.
  • Warranties and representations of the seller regarding ownership and encumbrances.
  • Administrative and registration obligations with competent authorities.
  • Linking with existing contracts, securities or leasing agreements.

Each transfer is legally reviewed in advance to prevent interpretation differences, liability risks and disputes in the registration of aircraft ownership.
