      @maestroakp  22 дні тому

      If you are talking of the drone license, you can register your drone on the GACA website. Follow the steps in the video to complete your application. The link is in the description.

    I wanna buy drone but I don't wanna fly it inside of saudi so do I need a license still??? Plus both drone is under 250g. Neo is 135g and the mini 4 pro is 249g... plz help

    • @maestroakp
      @maestroakp  2 місяці тому

      There’s no way to buy a drone in Saudi, so, you have to order from a vendor outside the country, which means the drone will pass through customs. Regardless of the size of the drone, customs will request for the drone permit before the drone is allowed into the country.
      You do not need to get the license since you won’t be flying within the country but you have to get the permit.
      Better still, send the drone to the country where you will be flying it if you have someone there to receive it.

      @maestroakp I go to Indonesia, Thailand, the Philippines & Malaysia most of those countries don't need a permit to fly drones. Speaking of bring a drone to SA I'll through BH 🇧🇭 bridge any have done it in the past.

    Hi. Thanks for sharing. But Im curious why you registered the drone while the drone is not more than 250g?
    Likewise, if I buy a drone like DJI Neo in other country and bring it when I go to Saudi is it still illegal?

    • @maestroakp
      @maestroakp  2 місяці тому

      I had to register the drone because I ordered it from a different country. Therefore, it requires clearance to pass through customs, irregardless of the size.
      You need to register your drone before bringing it into the country to avoid risk of confiscation, or other penalties, at the airport.

    Nice! I am planning to travel in Saudi Arabia. It is legal to play drone and bring into there?
    Or under 250g is ok?

      It’s legal as long as you get all the necessary permits before bringing the drone

    • @maestroakp

      First, you need to be aware that only Saudi residents, i.e., those who have an Iqama (residence permit), can own or fly a drone in Saudi.
      If you have that, then you need to register your drone on the GACA website using your resident ID, get the certificate & the permit, and make sure you have those documents in hand when entering into the country with the drone in order for it not to get confiscated, or worse. I have left a link to the GACA website in description. You can check out all the requirements there.

      @@umerghazanfar if you are caught with a drone, without a permit in Saudi Arabia, your drone will be seized. My advice will be to leave the drone behind, but if you have some way of carrying the drone without it getting detected, then, by all means go ahead.
