Drone laws by country

The assistant gives cited answers for 37 countries from official regulatory sources, together with the framework each one inherits from. Coverage varies by country, topic and type of operation: where no validated rule is available, the answer says so. Nothing here is a readiness rating or permission to fly.

Automated regulatory monitoring status

Regional framework

EU-wide rules apply across every EASA member state. National pages below add their own overlay on top of this framework rather than replacing it.

EU / EASA member states (23)

These pages combine the EU framework with the national overlay: registration, national authorisations and each country's own geographical-zone arrangements.

National frameworks (14)

Countries that regulate drones under their own framework, outside the EU/EASA system.

On hold (1)

Review of these jurisdictions is paused for the reason shown. They are not answerable and nothing has been verified for them.

Coming soon (28)

These jurisdictions are on the roadmap. Until their official sources are onboarded, the assistant will say so rather than guess.

How Drone Assistant works

This page gives general regulatory information. It is not flight clearance, operational authorisation or legal advice, and it does not guarantee that a flight is legal. See sources and methodology and terms.
