In plain language

When flying a tethered drone (up to 30m) to bypass standard permits, you must display your contact information on the drone, the tethering point, and the boundaries of the restricted area so people can reach you in an emergency.

Requirement as structured

JCAB states that when conducting a tethered flight to bypass certain permissions, the operator must clearly display contact information where the pilot can always be reached on the aircraft, the tethering point, and the outer boundary of the entry-controlled area.
