General
Any person, organization, or enterprise that wishes to operate an aircraft for the purpose of Commercial Air transport must obtain an Air Operator Certificate (AOC) from the DCA of Aruba.
AUA OPS 1 prescribes the requirements applicable to the operation of any civil aeroplane for commercial air transportation by any operator whose principal place of business and, if any, its registered office is in Aruba and that has been issued an economical authority in accordance with Article 13 of the Aviation Act of 1989 No. GT 58 and article 3 of the State Decree “Landsbesluit Luchtverkeer” (AB2000 GT86).
DD-AOC-F | Guide for Air Operator Certification provides guidance to a prospective applicant for an AOC to prepare for the AOC application process or the amendment to an existing AOC when varying the AOC/Operations Specifications (e.g., the introduction of new aircraft).
