# The Aeroplane Noise Regulations 1999, Regulation 7: Noise certificate requirements for foreign registered propeller driven aeroplanes


(1) Subject to paragraphs (2) and (3) no civil propeller driven aeroplane registered otherwise than in the United Kingdom, Gibraltar or another member State or EEA State shall land or take-off in the United Kingdom unless there is in force in respect of that aeroplane a noise certificate granted by the competent authority of the State of registry on the basis of satisfactory evidence that the aeroplane complies with requirements which are at least as stringent as those which the aeroplane, were it on the register of the United Kingdom, would be required to meet by virtue of regulation 4 or 5.
(2) After consultation with the Secretary of State the CAA may grant an exception from the requirements of paragraph (1) to permit, in exceptional cases, temporary use in the United Kingdom of aeroplanes which could not otherwise lawfully be operated on the basis of that paragraph or paragraph (3).
(3) After consultation with the Secretary of State the CAA may grant an exemption from the requirements of paragraph (1) to authorise the use of any aeroplane with a maximum certificated take-off mass exceeding 5,700 kilograms which is specially designed and manufactured in very few units, and used for the transportation of aeronautical industry products of exceptional sizes, and which cannot be put into service on the basis of that paragraph.
