When a 406 MHz ELT is installed in an aircraft, it is imperative that the aircraft owner register the ELT. In the US the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is the registration agency. Each 406 MHz ELT contains a unique identification code that is transmitted to the satellite. This helps the “Rescue Coordination Center” (RCC) determine whether an emergency actually has occurred. The unique identification permits accessing a data base. In the US the data base contains the following:
Owner’s Name
Address
Telephone Number
Aircraft Type
Aircraft Registration Number
This data facilitates inquiries as to the whereabouts of the aircraft, the existence of a flight plan and so forth. The above information should be kept up to date, with any changes to the data corrected (i.e. change of address, phone numbers, etc.).
Important Notice
Please Read Before Completing Registration
The information you furnish is mandatory and is intended to assist search and rescue teams in locating you or your craft in the event of beacon activation. The information will be provided to the United States Coast Guard, United States Air Force, and other Search and Rescue (SAR) teams as appropriate in the event of beacon activation. It will also be used to conserve SAR resources by helping to eliminate false alert deployments, e.g. an inadvertent activation can be resolved with a phone call.
Failure to register, re-register (which occurs every two years) or to notify NOAA of a change in the status for a 406 MHz beacon could result in penalties and/or fines being issued to the owner. An owner is required to notify NOAA of any changes to the registration information. Please note, due to the critical need for up-to-date registration information, NOAA will update the database accordingly if a beacon owner’s registration has expired and credible information is provided from SAR sources. NOAA will also seek information from other databases to update and/or complement the existing information for a beacon registration. Solicitation of this information is authorized by Parts 80, 87, and 95 of Title 47 of the US Code of Federal Regulations (CFRs).
There is no charge for beacon registration.
This is a service provided by the U.S. Government.
