AMC Acceptable means of compliance

## AMC M.A.802 Component certificate of release to service

The purpose of the EASA Form 1 (see also Appendix II to Part-M) is to release components after manufacture and to release [maintenance](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/maintenance) work carried out on such components under the approval of a competent authority, and to allow components that are removed from one [aircraft](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/aircraft)/[component](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/component) to be fitted to another aircraft/component.

When an approved [organisation](https://avioverse.aero/glossary/easa/organisation) maintains an aircraft component for use by the organisation, an EASA Form 1 may not be necessary depending upon the organisation’s internal release procedures; however all the information normally required for the EASA Form 1 should be adequately detailed in the certificate of release to service.
