Frequently asked questions and answers regarding drones in commercial use

For using a drone or unmanned aircraft for a voluntary service or in the commercial sector you need an insurance coverage which includes more than a private insurance and is tailored to your usage. This insurance will consider how many pilots should be covered, which coverage sum is needed and if you need a carrier liability insurance. We are happy to advise you in that matter.

For commercial drone flights you always need an EU proof of competence, the so-called drone pilot license.

Detailed information about the drone pilot license

You get the European registration number after application at the Luftfahrtbundesamt (German FAA). First you will receive an e-mail.

This will include the login data for your user account in which you can find your personal e-ID. In this user account, you will have to record all future changes, like your changes of address.

More about the e-ID/ unmanned vehicle operator registration

You do not need a flight permit for drones, if they

fly under the open category of the EU drone regulation,
have a take-off weight of under 25 kg
fly within sight range and
in a height of max. 120 m.

You also do not need a permission for a night flight anymore.

Not permitted without prior authorization: flying over crowds, power stations or hospitals on and near airports and local no-fly areas.

You will also need a flight permit if your flight plan does not fall under the open operation category.
