Actually with a sub-250 gram drone you are allowed to intentionally fly over uninvolved people as long as you want (though it should be avoided if possible). With a C1 classified drone you should not fly over people intentionally. You should check the actual rules and not a simplified table
The same drone rules for flying a drone applies everywhere in the EU, there are no stricter rules anywhere. In some countries there are just a lot of areas where flying is forbidden. Also the rules regarding taking photos can be different
Also the maximum take off mass (MTOM) is not defined by the actual weight but by the manufacturer of the drone. For example you can check the specs of Inspire 3 and there is mentioned the actual weight and the maximum takeoff mass
Yeah, that's just simply not true. Different EU member countries do have further regulations above the overarching EASA guidelines. @@jonnanieminen8848
Thanks for clarifying, Henrik!
Thank you for this excellent video Henrik. Going forward, it proves to be be most reassuring that I am OK going into 2024 here in the UK (CAA variations aside!!!)
One has to wonder whether or not any of the people making these rules, actually have flown a drone themselves. Thank you for bringing this to the general public. I'm in the USA, so it doesn't apply to me, but still good to learn just in case I ever travel over there.
What makes it worse is the member states make their own interpretations of the general rules, kinda eliminates the whole purpose of the share set of rules
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA the rules are same everywhere regarding flying drones. Taking photos or recording video is a different thing
@@jonnanieminen8848 Not true. In France, where you fly is the thing, whether you record images or not whilst flying is irrelevant
Paris at least is a no-fly zone. I didn't even take my drone on my trip there.
@@MyViewsOfTheWorld Any built up area in France is a no-fly zone - which means every village, town and city.
good job...thanks...
Thank you, sir, helpful!
Henrik. Very helpful and informative video as always, thank you...👍☘
Really great video, drove a lot of clarity.
As a U.K resident i found it much easier to register with the I.A.A (Irish aviation authority) to get a operators i.d for flying a drone in the E.U . ( As Ireland is a member of the E.U and EASA.)
Hi Henrik - loving your videos and thanks for sharing recently purchase DJI Mavic Mini Pro 4 - so getting lots of tips - off to Croatia in June and based in UK so do I need to register with the CAA or EASA as a drone operator - but this seems to apply to those living in the EU ???
Hi, thank you a lot, as I am 14 and really happy that there are no age restrictions for drones under 250 g, however even though I do travel to EU a lot, i live in UK, which makes all the rules even more confusing, could you make a video on that, even a simplified one. I will really appreciate any help with this!
Excellent Henrik! Greetings from Portugal. It is very important to spread these infos as much as possible in order to preserve this hobby within the law. Besides the Mini 3 Pro I also have a Phantom 4 and a Spark. By the way I have A2 (and also A1-A3) certificate. So I know what you mean, and the importance of it... and by the way I am flying just for hobby (not professionally)...
I might make more of these
Hi! I’m from Portugal too. I bought a dji mini 3 pro recently just for fun. How do I register myself as a drone operator?

Hi! I’m from Portugal too. I bought a dji mini 3 pro recently just for fun. How do I register myself as a drone operator?
Thanks for the info, much appreciated. Where can I register as a pilot, as I’m hoping to get my DJI mini 3 pro before I depart on a cruise to the Norwegian fjords in September. Do I need to register the drone in Norway before I depart. I live in Gibraltar & we’re technically not in the Eu anymore, thanks.
What would the rules be after 1.1. if you fly commercial with a legacy drone? AND if you want to fly closer to people? Would I need a STD-01 certificate to be sure?
Would the distance to people still be 50 meters?
This is quite insightful for me. I plan to buy the DJI mini 3 pro and this has clarified the EU drone laws for me
Good video I have once question ,I’ve purchased a 250gm drone for videos do I need a license ?
And you said it needs to be registered,where do I register this ? Thank you in advance
What about A drone that was purchased before 2024 but I recently second handed repurchased it in 2024. How would that work.
Hey there. I am having problems woth my mini 3 pro losing video transmission when using the active track mode. It loses the transmission as soon as i press go andnthe screen freezes. I cant find any info online that resolves this issue. Thanks.
Hello Henrik thank you for this video, but i need to confirm how I understand your video. I am owned DJI mini 2, and I plan to visit Italy.
I can fly without any licence, I don't need to register drone but I need to register myself like pilot?
Where do I register myself as drone operator ?
so I can still fly my mini 3 pro in 2024 in the a1 category without the new label?
Hello Tech Drone Media i live in Canada can you guide me the best way to get my drone license in EU? I do have my basic drone license in Canada.
I am from the USA and I'm going to be visiting Italy in December, I have a US UAS license. my question is can i bring my drone and fly in Italy?
Flying into europe with a drone on a carry on bag.
1. Are drone batteries a non issue in the carry on bag?
2. Looking at dji pro 3, which has a camera, does anyoe at the airport check if it was registered? How would I register when I'm not even in the EU yet? Flying in from NA.
3. I'm have a Cnadian and Polish passport, do all these rule still apply to EU members?
In Germany will I need drone insurance for a mini 3 pro? thank you
Sorry I am not native English. So listening is hard for understanding. Could you tell me if I want to use DJI drone Mini SE in Switzerland. Must I register?
so i live in the uk, own a mini3 pro and i have registered my drone.. i have an operator and flyer ID. I am going to Germany for a vacation and i want to take my drone. do i need to register it again in germany?
Hi, how or/and whee get registration for from operator. I have DJI mini pro 3 . And I’m going to fly by plane from SouKorea to Greece to through Arabic Emirates. Do you have any advice?
thats why i sold my air 2s for a mini 3 pro not worth big drones anymore the small are getting better and better
Thank you so much for this video it helped me a bit to clear my doubts....
I only had one question.
Are these rules and regulations followed in Germany(yes, I know Germany is a part of EU), but you know German rules are much more strict if compared to other EU countries.
I own a DJI Mini 3 series drone. I have not yet taken it outside as I am afraid to get into trouble. As an international student I want to be absolutely sure and know all the rules and regulations before I take my drone out. I have done a lot of research on rules and certification, but I cannot get a concrete answer as to where and when with what rules and certification i can fly my drone.
For context : I(international student) own a DJI Mini 3 (1 year refresh)
city i want to fly : Hamburg (one of the most strict region in Germany, almost no area with un-restricted flying zone to learn)
.
Can you please help me out.
I have reached out to so many drone enthusiasts in hamburg and in Germany but they too are a bit spectacle with my situation.
So, I would really appreciate if you could help me out with this situation..
Thank you so much in advance...
👍
Hello Henrik, I am from the United States and want to fly my drone in Italy. I have to register through D-Flight, and to register, it is asking for my Tax Payer ID Number. Do you have any insight as to why they are requiring this sensitive information? Thank you.
Thank you for this informative video. I do have a question though... I am flying into Italy next week, and I am bringing my DJI mini 4. Where exactly do I register myself as a pilot? The EASA website is very enormous, and very confusing, and I can not find it. Please help
You can register your self on one of the EU member states local sites
Helpful video but i still have questions. If i take my sub 250 drone to a different country. Do i need to register it there?
Different country, different rules....... read up on that country and FOLLOW THEM.
I have the TRUST certificate here in the US. I'll be visiting the UK, Germany, Italy and Croatia this summer. Do I have to pass the test and register in all of these countries individually or does it help that I have the US certificate?
Hi @lukastemberger - I have the same question (have a TRUST in the US and planning to drone around the UK recreationally) .. were you able to find a solution? Thanks!
Great, clear video. Going to Italy. Where do I register as a drone operator? Also, does the A1 category require liability insurance or is that a Italy requirement?
You can register in any of the member countries.. I have made a separate insurance for my all my drones, but in principle you should be able to cover your drone with your private insurance
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA Thanks for your reply. I was able to register as an operator on Italy's portal. And, you are right, my private liability insurance is adequate but only because I have an "umbrella" policy that raises the limit to meet the Italy requirement of $1M
@@whitedav1hello do you mind sharing the link where you registered as an operator? I’ve been trying to find it.
@@whitedav1can you share the link as in, where you registered for Italy?
There are also many other non-EU countries in Europe than the UK
True
Very good with easy to understand information and it is accurate information.
Hi, I am visiting Denmark next week with my DJI Mini 3 Pro, where can I register as a drone operator?
www.droneregler.dk/english
In Germany there was a rule that you had to be 16 years old, except toy copters. Under 16 only if a certified pilot is present. Doesn't that exist anymore?
In Holland it's the same rule.
Each member state can decide that, but it’s part part what is set by EASA
Pardon me, i don’t get the class identification on the beginning of 2024 thing and the legacy drone part. Will that affect me from flying my drone like normally when we’ll get to 2024?
It depend on your drones weight, if it’s below 250g it will not
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA Perfect!, it's the mini 3 pro so i guess im good. Thanks a bunch
over 250 gr we need to built a 3 miles airport and fly them around without restrictions lol
Yes that's correct... You should at all times expect being approached by local law enforcement agents with fine graded scales asking for proof of registration and paperwork 😅
Likely not, only when it goes wrong there will be problems
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA how could it go "wrong" you mean? What legislation in the EU is applicable crashing a 269g drone compared to a 249g one? 😂 Crime against the humanity? Rule breaking it is sure if anyone cares to gather the remains of aircraft, battery, prop guards, strobe etc attached.....
As far as o understand, if no crime commited by the pilot of the drone, or no suspicious activity done by drone, police enforcement should not come to you and disturb, especially during the flight as if you crash because of them talking to you, it's their crime. Fly safe
Hørte ellers at der ville blive strammet op på reglerne i 2024,,,eller er det stadig kun til høring?
Seems Portugal is on their own mission with Drone Laws. You not even allowed to take a photo or record video without permission first. You technically need authorization before each flight to take off. The sub 250 drones aren't allowed to fly higher than 30 meters apparently. wtf!!
Hi Henrick, I see you don't always reply I hope you will here. I have spent 2 days trying to figure out where to register I'm going to Sicily next month & time is running short for the love of me I cant find a link to register....can you help? Where do I register as a drone operator? Would you please post the link as to where to acquire the registration. Its so complicated ...Thank you
Take a look here - www.easa.europa.eu/en/light/topics/drone-operators-pilots
Can you release a video about the mini 4 pro and the new C0 category plz?
That is a good suggestion
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA thanks kindly. Following from Ireland 🇮🇪. Keep up the great content
Thanks for the clarifications. One question I always have about groups. Let's say there is a concert going on. I know I can fly OVER the concert, but can I film the concert from a distance, where I am not over a crowd? Can I fly elsewhere and capture the event but not fly OVER the crowds?
Flying over a concert is a completely different copyright issue and has nothing to do with the flight itself. When it comes to crowds, there should be so few people per surface area that people can easily jump aside if a drone comes crashing down. Maybe not so easy at an outdoor rock concert.
@@Mimer6 yes, I know about crowds and that surely makes sense. I had not considered the copyright issue with the concert, though. Good point there. However, how different is that from someone at the concert recording and posting? Is that also a copyright issue? Has anyone ever been sued for that? So many questions, not that I thought about filming a concert with a drone, especially because I would not have the audio to match :) I'm just brainstorming.
@@MyViewsOfTheWorld Recording and photography are usually prohibited at concerts. In the past, the guards could take the camera if they found someone. You didn't get the camera back until afterwards and you had to pull the film out into the daylight so the film was ruined. Now the rules are the same, but what should they do when 2,000 people take out their mobile phones and film? It simply becomes too powerful to implement the rules.
You can always have a friend in the audience to record the sound separately
So
When travelling on holiday from the U.K.
to Spain or Croatia how do I register my drone in these countries
( I am registered in the U.K. and my drone is labelled from the CAA. I also hold A2 C of C certification)
you need to register you as a droneoperator in one of the member states, that's it
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA
So as I am registered in the U.K., does this count
No
were you able sort this issue out? i am travelling to Germany
We were supposed to have new sub 250g rules here in Australia as of 1/7 2023, but once again, it has been put in the too hard basket, so no 250g limit. So the only benefit for 250g drones is you can fly closer to an airport..
Hello, thank you for your helpful content. Do you think the Mini 3 pro height restrictions will change in 2024? Why is the Mini 4 pro (basically the same drone) restricted to 120m? Thanks for your insights.
Since a lot of dji users were angry about this feature, Dji have removed the locked 120m on the mini 4 Pro (which is the max altitude allowed in EU). It is your own responsibility if you fly above this restricted altituded.
Hi do you have a link to register for EASA drone operator? Thank you

Heading to marbella next September from uk to film a wedding , currently have mini 2 but will be upgrading to mini 3 pro (better camera) what 2ill i need to fly in spain to avoid the rubber gloves treatment?
my understanding is if you have an operator license in UK it is ok to use around the EU.
@@SandyToesDetecting that would make it alot easier for sure
@@mcmediaandfilm Just check the airspace map around Marbella. Where I am in spain I am near an international airport and have to drive outside the no fly zone which exists, this is way beyond the DJI map which is not correct in zone.
Hi, Great video. I am planning to travel to Spain on holidays, I have a DJI mini 3 pro, I have an operator ID from Romania. Does anyone know if I have to do anything before I travel to Spain? Many Thanks
Hello! Do u know what are the rules for Romania?
I have a DJI Mini 3 Drone. I live in the UK and have a British CAA operator and Flyer id. I have taken and passed the EASA test and have a registration number. I intend to visit Norway soon, which is not in the EU but a member of the EFTA and I believe has the same drone rules as the rest of the EU. Can you tell me if I need to register my drone with the Norwegian Aviation authority as it's a little confusing? I read somewhere that ALL drones, apart from toys) have to be registered in Norway? Thanks.
I'm not 100% sure, but I believe the Operator ID is all that is required in Norway in this context
@@olabergvall3154 Thank you

Hi im in italy how the heck do i register omg i csnnot find any eay to do it
You can register in any of the EU member states
250grams drone without camera you can fly finland.if you have camera you need permission
Where do I register as a drone operator? Would you please post the link as to where to acquire the registration. Thank you
You can do that in any EU member state www.droneregler.dk/english
I’m in Italy right now. In Pitigliano to be exact. Thank you for the reply
Hi,
I have a Mini 3 pro with an A2 coc license, can I fly my mimi under A2 rules?
No, you need a EASA A2 certificate
Thanks for the response.
I have the EASA A2 certificate.
So do you think I can fly the Mini 3 Pro with the A2 rules?
Thanks
G
My take away from this -250 gram rule is to personally carry on one's self a CERTIFIED 250 gram measuring weight .... because one should NEVER trust someone else's scales !!!!
I'm not seeing the differences between C0 and C1 class drones after 2024
A1/A3 is needed for C1
@@TECHDRONEMEDIA Thank you for your response. I was thinking about buying the Mini 3 pro but, seems that at 2024 you can no longer fly over people even C0 class
I have the A1/A3 certification, now I might buy the Mavic 3 it has the C1 class certification.
Yes, C1 seem to be the sweet spot in the open category
Unfortunately, it doesn't apply in Hungary, - for some ridiculous reason, we have to register and get insurance (and reserve space for money) for everything above 120 g, every time we fly.
Hey thx for all your info. Do you maybe have any info for drones above 250 grams. I have an dji fpv drone and its realy not clear to me witch rules apply and witch don't. Have already browsed the web for hours by now. Hope you can help. Greetings love your videos btw
Thank you very much for this video, always very informative! I'm from Canada and was wondering about flying the dji mini 3 pro in Greece soon, I understand that I need to register myself but I can't seem to do it from here, their website won't allow me to do so from here! I read that I must apply only once in Greece! It's been pretty difficult to get more info on the subject, like how much it costs to register in Greece. I don't want to bother if it's going to cost me hundreds of dollars. If you could please let me know what I need to do that would be wonderful. Thank you kindly
You asked about rules in different EU countries:
In Sweden for the DJI Mini 2 it seems that the National Authority has flipped what you said is the EU decision. I MUST register my drone and affix the registration on the drone. But I do not need to take and pass an exam to fly the drone.
Then, besides abiding by the drone flight map marking out the prisons and airports etc .... In a number of circumstances if I want to publish on for example my UA-cam photos or video taken with a drone then I must send the files to a National authority to approve this since otherwise I might have captured some item of national security in the woods....without knowing that I did that when flying in approved areas.
When I see your flights around e.g. the castle in Helsingör I cannot help feel some envy because if that had been in Sweden then you would have had to submit the footage to the authority and wait for approval before putting up on UA-cam.
The drone rules are the same in every EU country but there are different rules for taking photos or recording video
@@jonnanieminen8848 that is not my experience, as I explained. And on this channel we have heard examples (the French are much stricter) and have been asked to provide examples from the various countries.
@@joestrahl6980 You were speaking about taking photos. The rules for flying drone are the same everywhere in the EU
Also you are not required to register your drone but yourself. Of course you should affix the label on the drone but that isn't registering the drone. You don't have to submit the serial number of your drone anywhere
@@jonnanieminen8848 re read my entire posting, that was only a part of what I talked about
Recommend everyone to make a licence (free for a1) and register the mini category drones. I oay 40€ for year. Who doesn't have this money should find another hobby...
