Identification of issue
EASA has been approached by Member States, industry, e.g. maintenance organisations, and other stakeholders on the possibility and related conditions of transfer of dual use components from a state (e.g. military) environment to a civil environment.
This certification memorandum provides guidance for the type certificate holders (TCHs) who intend to develop optional maintenance instructions to support and facilitate the transfer of components from state to civil environment. Such guidance is intended to facilitate the issuance of an EASA FORM 1 release certificate for the concerned part or component in accordance with point 145.A.50 of Annex II (Part-145) to Commission Regulation (EU) No 1321/2014.
A Flowchart: “Dual Use Components from a State to a Civil Environment and the Associated Maintenance Instructions” has been added to the CM as an appendix for contextual information purposes.
