Transfer of pilot licence and medical records

Do you want to transfer your pilot licence and/or medical records to another EASA member state? This is how you proceed for a state of licence issue (SOLI) change.

  1. Apply change of competent authority
    You must apply to the country that you want as your future competent authority. The old (transferring) and future (receiving) competent authority will coordinate the handling of your application.

    If you want to transfer your pilot licence and/or medical certificate from Norway to another EASA member state, you need to apply to the aviation authority in that country. Contact the foreign aviation authority for more information on how to proceed.

    If you wish to transfer your pilot licence and/or medical certificate to Norway, you can apply by submitting the following form.

    Application: Change of competent authority NF-1057
  2. Pay the application fee
    You will, in most cases, receive an invoice from the future competent authority and, in some cases also from the former competent authority.

    In Norway, we charge one fee for transferring pilot licences and one for transferring medical records. Information about these are to be found in the Regulation for fees to the Civil Aviation Authority (BSL A 1-2).

  3.  Return of the old pilot licence and medical certificate
    If Norway is your new competent authority, you will receive a new pilot licence and medical certificate from Luftfartstilsynet (CAA-Norway). When you receive the new licence and medical certificate, the old ones must be sent back to CAA-Norway immediately.

  4. Completed Exchange Process
    The exchange process is not completed until you have received a notification from CAA-Norway, stating that we have received your old pilot licence and medical certificate. Until you receive this notification from us, the transferring authority is still your competent authority. Therefore, it is important that you send us your old licence and medical certificate as soon as possible.
