The ANAC was created on 27 April 2007 to succeed the former National Institute of Civil Aviation (Portuguese: Instituto Nacional de Aviação Civil), which had been created on 15 May 1998 for taking over the General Directorate of Civil Aviation (Portuguese: Direcção-Geral da Aviação Civil).[1]
The body is organised into a Directorate Council which is in turn sub-divided into five Directorates and three Cabinets, a Consultant Council, and a Finance Council.[3] It has its headquarters in Lisbon Airport.[4]
