11. Eliminate The Possibility of Reinstatement Fees By Paying Your Yearly Renewal Registration In Advance.

The FAA requires a renewal of all active aircraft registrations, which can only be done every 3 years at a time. To avoid a lapse in registration we offer a pre-paid service to you. This is not a subscription. You will not get charged a yearly fee. It is an advance payment option for future renewals and you will only get charged a one-time fee at the time of your application submission per the number of years selected. National Aviation Center will pay all government fees on your behalf to the Federal Aviation Administration, for the selected amount of years.
You will automatically receive a Certificate of Aircraft Registration with a validity of three years, once every three years, per the number of advanced renewals requested.
In the event of cancellation, please be advised that all processing and application fees are non-refundable. As a courtesy, fees paid for the unused renewal years can be applied to other registration services offered by National Aviation Center.
I understand that each completed Certificate of Aircraft Registration will be valid for a maximum period of three (3) years after issuance.
