Nippon Cargo Airlines Co. Ltd. (NCA) is audited by the International Air Transport Association (IATA) using the IOSA standard (i.e., IATA Operation Safety Audit). NCA's IOSA registration has been successfully renewed and remains valid until October 19, 2025.
This audit aims to verify that airline operations comply with international safety standards. The extensive audit covers approximately 1,000 items, checking not only operations and maintenance but also safety management systems. Five auditors take up to five days to complete the audit.
To maintain this registration, airline companies must be audited and verified by IATA every two years for registration renewal with the audit items reviewed every year and updated in accordance with the latest international standards. The next audit is scheduled for June 2025.
The IOSA registration verifies that an airline company operates safely in compliance with internationally accepted standards. Every year, NCA confirms that it properly complies with the audit items required by IOSA through an internal audit process in order to maintain a high level of safety.
