Last updated: April 2026 dataLanding gear assemblies and their component parts represent a safety-critical segment of the civil aviation supply chain, subject to FAA airworthiness standards and traceability requirements that govern every imported unit. Buyers must verify that parts originate from FAA-approved production approval holders or carry appropriate airworthiness approval tags, as counterfeit or unapproved parts are a persistent compliance concern. Classification under this heading turns on whether the article is a complete undercarriage assembly or a discrete component, a distinction that affects both duty treatment and export-control screening under the EAR or ITAR.
AI-written summary of the official U.S. Census Bureau trade figures on this page — verify before relying on it.
Imported landing gear and undercarriage components must be accompanied by FAA Form 8130-3 (Airworthiness Approval Tag) or an equivalent bilateral aviation safety agreement (BASA) document from the exporting country's civil aviation authority. Shipments from non-BASA countries may require additional FAA validation before the parts can be installed on US-registered aircraft.
Depending on design specifications and end-use, undercarriage assemblies may be controlled under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR) or, for military-grade articles, the International Traffic in Arms Regulations (ITAR). Importers and re-exporters should screen each part number against the Commerce Control List and confirm the applicable Export Control Classification Number (ECCN) before shipment.
