Nature Conservation Permit for Lake Neusiedl

Verified from official sources
Version 1Effective -Verified 25 August 2026

In plain language

Even when Austro Control doesn't require a permit in LO R 16 (like in August and September), you must always get permission from the Burgenland provincial government before flying there due to nature protection laws.

Requirement as structured

Austro Control's official guidance states that, because the Neusiedler See nature-protection rules apply at all times, approval must be obtained from the Burgenland provincial government before conducting a flight in LO R 16 (Neusiedler See). This is official Austro Control guidance; no Burgenland provincial provision establishing a drone-specific approval duty has been identified.

Original regulatory text

Bitte beachten Sie jedoch, dass die naturschutzrechtlichen Bestimmungen des Neusiedler Sees zu jeder Zeit gültig bleiben . Vor Durchführung eines Fluges ist deshalb die Genehmigung der Burgenländischen Landesregierung einzuholen.
