Evidence Submission Requirements based on Robustness Level

Verified from official sources
Annex A to AMC1 Article 11Annex A to AMC1 Article 11Version 1Effective -Verified 22 August 2026

In plain language

You do not always have to submit all your SORA compliance evidence to the authority. Low-risk (low robustness) evidence and medium-risk evidence using standard EASA guidelines can be kept on file, but high-risk evidence must be submitted with your application.

Requirement as structured

EASA accepts keeping low robustness evidence and medium robustness evidence (using EASA AMC) internal, while requiring high robustness evidence and medium robustness evidence (not using EASA AMC) to be submitted with the application.

Original regulatory text

Evidence developed in support of requirements having a low level of robustness... may be kept internal to the UAS operator’s organisation. The same applies in case the level of robustness of the requirements is medium and the UAS operators decided to use AMC published by EASA... In case the level of robustness of the requirements is high or it is medium and the UAS operators decided not to use AMC published by EASA, then the evidence should be provided with the application of the operational authorisation.
