AC Form 8050-1B Aircraft Registration Renewal Application
What Is AC Form 8050-1B?
AC Form 8050-1B, Aircraft Registration Renewal Application , is a legal document completed by the owner of any aircraft to renew or cancel the existing registration with the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) . Registration will expire three years after your aircraft was registered or last renewed - you have to schedule the date of filing the registration renewal application five months before your registration expires. It will enable the delivery of a new certificate of registration before the old one becomes invalid and provide the FAA with a safety margin to correct possible errors in the application.
The FAA will mail you a renewal notice to inform you of the expiring registration six months prior to the registration expiration date. If you have not renewed your registration on time, the FAA will send you a second notice; the third notice will be mailed when the registration and airworthiness certificates have expired and no longer support the operation of the aircraft.
The latest version of the form was issued on October 1, 2018 , with all previous editions obsolete. You can download a fillable FAA Form AC 8050-1B through the link below.
