FAQ n.19446

An ETSOA holder could either hold a Product Organisation Approval (POA) or be linked through an agreement to an independent POA or produce under the provision of Part 21, subpart F.

The ETSOA holder is also required to hold Alternative Procedures to Design Organisation Approval (ADOA). For an APU approval a DOA is mandatory.

The organisational requirements do not apply to applications from third countries that have signed a full bilateral agreement with the EU.
