An application for the issue of the certificate shall be made to the relevant EASA Aviation Authority where the training course has been completed.

The TCP certificate (EASA-142) is subject to the validity criterion, which must be kept and accredited by its holder to the operator when required by the operator, in accordance with the provisions of the CC.CCA.105 Validity of the cabin crew member certificate of the Commission Regulation EU 290/2012 of 30 March.
