Emergency Flight Permission Application

In plain language

If you need to fly urgently for disaster relief or emergency news reporting, you can apply for permission by phone or email first, but you must submit the official paperwork later.

Requirement as structured

MLIT states that in urgent situations, such as disaster response or urgent news coverage, applicants may apply for flight permission via telephone or email, provided they submit a formal application at a later date.
