ANAC · Brazil

Brazil overflight and landing permits.

Brazil combines a detailed authorisation process with genuinely congested airports in the south east, so the permit and the slot have to move together. Either one alone gets you nowhere.

LEAD TIME

Moderate by international standards, though the requirements have changed more than once in recent years. We file against the current rules rather than the ones that applied last season.

What ANAC asks for

The document pack

  • 01Aircraft registration, airworthiness and insurance documents.
  • 02CIV documentation for the aircraft.
  • 03Operator air operator certificate for commercial flights.
  • 04Crew and passenger details.
  • 05Confirmed slots where the destination is coordinated, which in São Paulo it is.

WHAT CATCHES PEOPLE OUT

Congonhas is slot constrained and its runways rule out a lot of aircraft outright. Plenty of Brazil trips are better flown to Campo de Marte or Guarulhos, and it is cheaper to find that out from us than from a refused slot.

We file it, not you

Send the route and the tail number. We work out which permits it needs, file each one, and track it to a permit number rather than a submission receipt.
