It is necessary to have this authorisation before providing any of the services listed in the Annex to Royal Decree 1161/1999 to a user of an airport of general interest.

It is possible to consult the airports at which the Royal Decree applies and the categories of service in the model application for authorisation.

In the event that a request needs to be remedied, due to lack of documentation or any other reason, it must be answered within 10 working days. After the deadline, no documentation has been provided, it is considered that the application has been withdrawn.

The reason why we refuse authorisation in this case is because Law 39/2015 on the Common Administrative Procedure of Public Administrations (LPACAP) requires AESA to reply within a certain period.

Through the telematic processor, which is the AESA application for the management by the inspected party of the inspection documentation (https://sede.seguridadaerea.gob.es/oficina/solicitudes/solicitudes.do).

  Please note that you must provide the documentation in the appropriate file, otherwise the response may be delayed.

The maximum time limit for deciding (granting or refusing) an application for authorisation is 6 months from the date of entry by registration of the application. After this period without a decision by EASA on the matter, the authorisation may be considered granted.

If you have received a request and already have the required documentation, you must access the AESA website again, and click on the link “My Applications”, search for the corresponding application and provide the required documents.

If you fail to follow these steps, you may mistakenly create a new application or assign the documentation to the incorrect file, which may delay the termination of the authorisation.

Yes, as long as the grounds for refusal have been resolved, authorisation may be re-applyed.

In addition, you should know that all documents that remain valid in the rejected application will continue to be considered and you will not need to provide it again.

In case of problems with access to the website, when signing the documentation or attaching evidence, we suggest that you contact the AESA IT service through this email: cau.aesa@seguridadaerea.es

It must be signed in such a way as to demonstrate the authenticity, integrity and unalterability of the document.

The telematics procedure authorised at the electronic site allows these documents to be signed at the same time as they are submitted, which is why it is essential that the person presenting the documentation at headquarters, be it the interested party himself or a valid representative of the interested party. 

They can submit a digitised copy of any valid document in law (e.g. notary writings).

We recommend the use of the Apodera tool, since it allows for seizures in a very simple way, you must take special care to correctly indicate the authorised person (interested, company that will obtain the authorisation) and the authorised representative, as well as to grant power in the appropriate procedures.

Remember that the duration of the power does not in any way affect the duration of the authorisation.

We recommend submitting the application through the Electronic Headquarters of AESA through the telematic procedure “AUTORISATION PRESTATION OF SERVICE ASSISTENCE IN TIERRA”, since in this way the procedure is more agile.
