REPUBLIC OF FRANCE - SPECIAL REQUIREMENTS (Revised June 7, 1978)
1. INTRODUCTION.
Effective October 12, 1968, to be eligible for a French standard airworthiness certificate, an aircraft imported into France must be of a type which has been issued a French type certificate for import, except as provided in paragraph 2.a. (2) of these special requirements. In addition, U.S. manufactured aircrait must meet the export rules in Federal Aviation Requlations (FAR) Part 21 Subpart I. The requirements for issuance of French type certificates are contained in Conditions de Navigabilite des Aeronefs CivileArrete of September 1967,i (for convenience, referred to hereinafter as the "CNAC") and in French Circular No. 5403 DTA/M, S.G.A.C. dated November 13, 1968. Other French documents and circulars also apply, as referred to in the text that follows.
Copies of French documents and circulars can be obtained from the French Embassy or the Ministere des Transports Aeirens, Secretariat General a l'Aviation Civile, 93 Boulevard de Montparnasse, Paris 6e, France. Since a French type certificate for import is a prerequisite to issuance of a French airworthiness certificate, these special requirements include an outline of the general requirements for obtaining such type certificates.
b. Class II and III products will be exported in accordance with the provisions prescribed in Part 21, Subpart L of the United States Federal Aviation Regulations. In particular, each class II and III product will be exported with an Airworthiness Approval Tag.
Aeronautical authorities of the importing country (S.G.A.C.) shall promptly advise the aeronautical authorities of the exporting country of any additional requirements which the importing country finds necessary to insure that the products meet a level of safety equivalent to that which be effective for a similar product produced on the importing state. This will be confirmed by the importing agent on his orders.

(b) The requirements of Article 11B of the CNAC must be complied with.
Appendix 2 If a French standard airworthiness certificate was issued prior to October 12, 1968, for at least one aircraft of a particular type, then aircraft of that type may continue to be issued French standard airworthiness certificates on the basis of equivalency with the U.S. Export Certificate of Airworthiness, even though the particular model involved may not have been issued a French type certificate for import. French airworthiness certificates are issued under these conditions subject to compliance with other requirements of the CNAC (reference CNAC Article 5, paragraph 2).
NOTE: An aircraft having major changes which required approval under Federal Aviation Regulations (FAR) Part 21, Section 21.97 and/or FAR Part 21, Subpart E, is not eligible to obtain a French airworthiness certificate under the provisions of paragraph 2.a. (2) even though an aircraft of the same model may have been issued a French airworthiness certificate prior to October 12, 1968. In order to obtain a French standard airworthiness certificate, the applicant must comply with the procedures outlined under paragraph 2.a. (1).
A French type certificate for import or an extension of a type certificate for import will be issued each time that the FAA issues a new type certificate or an STC for a model based on a model previously imported.
b. Special Airworthiness Certificates. A French special airworthiness certificate may be issued to an aircraft of a model for which application has been made for a French type certificate for import, in order to facilitate its use under the conditions spelled out in Article 5, paragraph 2B of the CNAC, provided that the Secretariat General of Aviation Civil (S.G.A.C.) is familiar with the model. In addition, the procedure required for issuance of special airworthiness certificates will be applied in the case of aircraft ir the restricted category.
c. Permit. A permit may be issued by the S.G.A.C. to an aircraft which has provisional French registration markings only to permit the ferrying and tests necessary for aircraft type certification. Normally, the S.G.A.C. will not authorize any private utilization and the permit may, basically, be renewed only tor a total period of time not to exceed one year (reference CNAC Article 13 and 19, and Article 5, paragraph 3).
3. REQUIREMENTS FOR ISSUANCE OF FRENCH TYPE CERTIFICATES FOR IMPORT FOR U.S. MANUFACTURED AIRCRAFT.
