Non-EU Resident Operator Registration

In plain language

If you live outside the EU, you must register as a drone operator with the aviation authority of the first EU country you plan to fly in (such as the IAA if starting in Ireland).

Requirement as structured

Non-EU residents must register as a drone operator with the National Aviation Authority of the first EU country where they intend to conduct operations.

Original regulatory text

Therefore, as a non-EU resident, you are also required to register with the National Aviation Authority of the first EU country where you intend to operate which would be IAA for the Republic of Ireland.
