Verified from official sources
Version 1Effective -Verified 23 August 2026

In plain language

If you only fly in the open category, you do not need to register your individual drones in your AESA profile. You only need to register yourself as a UAS operator.

Requirement as structured

Operators flying exclusively in the 'open' category are not required to register individual aircraft in their operator profile; they only need to register as a UAS operator.

Original regulatory text

Le recordamos que, si opera en categoría ‘abierta’ no se le requiere que incluya sus aeronaves en el perfil de operador (únicamente registrarse como operador de UAS).
