Subpart A A-1
 CASR 45, Rev. 4

SUBPART B. IDENTIFICATION OF AIRCRAFT AND RELATED PRODUCTS

45.11 General
a. Aircraft and aircraft engines.
Aircraft covered under Section 21.182 of the CASRs must be identified, and each
person who manufactures an aircraft engine under a type or production certificate
shall identify that engine, by means of a fireproof plate that has the information
specified in section 45.13 of this Part marked on it by etching, stamping,
engraving, or other approved method of fireproof marking. The identification plate
for aircraft must be secured in such a manner that it will not likely be defaced or
removed during normal service, or lost or destroyed in an accident. Except as
provided in paragraphs c. and d. of this section, the aircraft identification plate
must be secured to the aircraft fuselage exterior so that it is legible to a person on
the ground, and must be either adjacent to and aft of the rearmost entrance door
or on the fuselage surface near the tail surfaces. For aircraft engines, the
identification plate must be affixed to the engine at an accessible location in such
a manner that it will not likely be defaced or removed during normal service, or lost
or destroyed in an accident.
b. Propellers and propeller blades and hubs.
Each person who manufactures a propeller, propeller blade, or propeller hub
under the terms of a type or production certificate shall identify his product by
means of a plate, stamping, engraving, etching, or other approved method of
fireproof identification that is placed on it on a non-critical surface, contains the
information specified in Section 45.13, and will not be likely to be defaced or
removed during normal service or lost or destroyed in an accident.
c. Manned free balloons.
For manned free balloons, the identification plate prescribed in paragraph a. of
this section must be secured to the balloon envelope and must be located, if
practicable, where it is legible to the operator when the balloon is inflated. In
addition, the basket and heater assembly must be permanently and legibly
marked with the manufacturer’s name, part number (or equivalent) and serial
number (or equivalent).
d. On aircraft manufactured before December 27, 1993, the identification plate
required by paragraph a. of this section may be secured at an accessible exterior
or interior location near an entrance, if the model designation and builder’s serial
number are also displayed on the aircraft fuselage exterior. The model designation
and builder’s serial number must be legible to a person on the ground and must
be located either adjacent to and aft of the rearmost entrance door or on the
fuselage near the tail surfaces. The model designation and builder’s serial number
must be displayed in such a manner that they are not likely to be defaced or
removed during normal service.
e. In addition to requirements of Section 45.14, each person who manufactures parts
under the terms of a type or production certificate shall identify his parts by means
of a plate, stamping, engraving, etching, or other acceptable method that is placed
on it on a non critical surface and will not be likely to be defaced or removed
during storage or until it was installed in next higher assembly. The identification
required by this section shall include Part Number, Serial Number (if any) and

Subpart B B-1
 CASR 45, Rev. 4

stamp or signature or other acceptable evidence that the parts has passed the
manufacturer’s quality inspection.
f. For powered parachutes and weight-shift-control aircraft, the identification plate
prescribed in paragraph (a) of this section must be secured to the aircraft fuselage
exterior so that it is legible to a person on the ground.

45.13 Identification data

a. The identification required by Sections 45.11 a. and b. shall include the following
information:

5) Production certificate number, if any.
6) For aircraft engines, the established rating.
7) For aircraft engines specified in Part 34 of the CASRs, the date of
manufacture as defined in section 34.1 of that Part, and a designation,
approved by the DGCA, that indicates compliance with the applicable exhaust
emission provisions of Part 34. Approved designations include COMPLY,
EXEMPT, and NON - ROI as appropriate.
a) The designation COMPLY indicates that the engine is in compliance with
all of the applicable exhaust emissions provisions of Part 34. For any
engine with a rated thrust in excess of 26.7 kilonewtons (6000 pounds)
which is not used or intended for use in commercial operations and which
is in compliance with the applicable provisions of Part 34, but does not
comply with the hydrocarbon emissions standards of section 34.21 d., the
statement “May not be used as a commercial aircraft engine” must be
noted in the permanent powerplant record that accompanies the engine at
the time of manufacture of the engine.
b) The designation EXEMPT indicates that the engine has been granted an
exemption pursuant to the applicable provision of Section 34.7 a.1), a.4),
b., c. or d., and an indication of the type of exemption and the reason for
the grant must be noted in the permanent powerplant record that
accompanies the engine from the time of manufacture of the engine.
c) The designation NON - ROI indicates that the engine has been granted an
exemption pursuant to section 34.7 a. 1), and the notation “This aircraft
may not be operated within the Republic of Indonesia”, or an equivalent
notation approved by the DGCA, must be inserted in the aircraft logbook,
or alternate equivalent document, at the time of installation of the engine.
8) Any other information the DGCA finds appropriate.
b. Except as provided in paragraph d.1) of this section, no person may remove,
change, or place identification information required by paragraph a. of this section,
on any aircraft, aircraft engine, propeller, propeller blade, or propeller hub, without
the approval of the DGCA.
c. Except as provided in paragraph d.2) of this section, no person may remove or
install any identification plate required by Section 45.11 of this Part, without the
approval of the DGCA.

a. of this section on any aircraft, aircraft engine, propeller, propeller blade, or
propeller hub; or
2) Remove an identification plate required by Section 45.11 when necessary
during maintenance operations.
e. No person may install an identification plate removed in accordance with
paragraph d.2) of this section on any aircraft, aircraft engine, propeller, propeller
blade, or propeller hub other than the one from which it was removed.

45.14 Identification of critical components

Each person who produces a part for which a replacement time, inspection interval,
or related procedure is specified in the Airworthiness Limitations section of a
manufacture’s maintenance manual or Instructions for Continued Airworthiness shall
permanently and legibly mark that component with a part number (or equivalent) and
a serial number (or equivalent).

45.15 Replacement and modification parts

a. Except as provided in paragraph b. of this section, each person who produces a
replacement or modification part under a Parts Manufacturer Approval issued
under Section 21.303 of the CASRs shall permanently and legibly mark the part

the part is eligible for installation.
b. If the DGCA finds that a part is too small or that it is otherwise impractical to mark
a part with any of the information required by paragraph a. of this section, a tag
attached to the part or its container must include the information that could not be
marked on the part. If the marking required by paragraph a.4) of this section is so
extensive that to mark it on a tag is impractical, the tag attached to the part or the
container may refer to a specific readily available manual or catalog for part
eligibility information.

45.16 Marking of life-limited parts.

When requested by a person required to comply with Section 43.10 of the CASR,
the holder of a type certificate or design approval for a life-limited part must provide
marking instructions, or must state that the part cannot be practicably marked without
compromising its integrity. Compliance with this paragraph may be made by
providing marking instructions in readily available documents, such as the
maintenance manual or the Instructions for Continued Airworthiness.
