All commercial drone or remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) operators now have just one week to go to register their RPA and get accredited to keep flying.
Date:
Registration and operator accreditation for RPA flown for business or as part of your job – no matter how much it weighs – is required by 28 January 2021.
Registration is free and valid for 12 months. Operator accreditation is free and valid for 3 years.
Some drones don't need to be registered. This applies if:
- you don't intend to fly your drone
- you’re only flying for sport or recreation, including model aircraft flown at CASA-approved model airfields.
You do not need an operator accreditation if:
- you have remote pilot licence (RePL)
- you're only flying for sport or recreation, including model aircraft association members flying at CASA-approved model airfields.
Penalties will apply for flying an unregistered RPA or without an operator accreditation from 28 January 2021.
Don’t delay – do it today! Get accredited. Register your drone.
