Issuance of Personnel Licences with new security Features

CAASL has introduced new security feature for all personnel licences to improve the quality with a tamper proof sticker with immediate effect.

The personnel who already hold current licences will be re-issued with this security feature when they call over for renewal or on request.

All holders of personnel Licences issued by DGCA Sri Lanka are required to forward the original licence to the counter of personnel Licensing Section to include  the licence with new security features, when they call over at CAASL for renewal or at their own convenience before the renewal date.

No fee will be charged for this purpose.
