The first step is to determine eligibility of owner to register an aircraft in the Territory and then submit required ownership documents through an online Registration Application. Please visit Aircraft Registration Process for full details.
A specific registration mark for the aircraft can be reserved, given details of the aircraft and the name of the proposed registering owner, or if that is not yet available then the name of the registering agent. Please send request to registrationenquiries@caaccayman.com and visit 'Registering an aircraft in the Cayman Islands for more details.
A mortgage can be registered for an aircraft registered in the Cayman Islands as security for a loan for that aircraft. Please see Mortgaging of Aircraft.
A mortgage registered within 14 days shall be deemed to have priority from the time when the priority notice was registered. A priority notice can be renewed at the end of each 14 day period indefinitely. However, there is a CI$250 fee at each renewal.
An appropriately approved Maintenance Organisation with a scope of approval commensurate with the work order request. NOTE: this approval is not in lieu of the required OTAR Part 145 arrangements, but to cater for one-off circumstances. Applications are considered case by case for approval.
Aircraft Maintenance Organisations suitably approved by; EASA, TCCA, or US FAA. Additionally, the CAACI under provision OTAR Part 145 can investigate for approval an Aircraft Maintenance Organisation that is not approved by an NAA listed above.

Operational Safety Advisory
Aircraft Operations in the Middle East Region
George Town, Grand Cayman (6 March 2026) - The Civil Aviation Authority of the Cayman Islands (CAACI) advises Cayman Islands AOC holders, operators, and pilots of Cayman Islands-registered aircraft to exercise heightened vigilance when planning or conducting flight operations in, or in the vicinity of, the Middle East region.
Due to ongoing geopolitical tensions and the potential for rapidly changing security conditions, there may be increased risks to civil aviation operations, including possible military activity, airspace restrictions, and disruptions to air navigation services.
Operators are reminded to conduct appropriate operational risk assessments prior to operating within affected airspace and to review all relevant safety information, including applicable NOTAMs, airspace restrictions, and guidance issued by States responsible for the relevant Flight Information Regions (FIRs). Operators should also consider alternative routings or the avoidance of certain areas where risks cannot be adequately mitigated.
The CAACI remains committed to fulfilling its safety oversight obligations and will utilize alternative oversight methods where travel to the region is not possible. Where oversight activities previously relied on travel to airports in the region, alternative arrangements will be implemented as necessary.
The CAACI will continue to monitor developments and may issue further guidance as required.
For any questions regarding this advisory, please contact civil.aviation@caacayman.com
