Renewal of Expired Certificates

In plain language

If you let your pilot certificate expire, you cannot do a quick refresher; you must retake all training and exams starting from the basic A1/A3 level.

Requirement as structured

If a remote pilot certificate has already expired, the pilot must complete the entire training and examination process again from the beginning, starting from the A1/A3 level, to renew it.

Original regulatory text

However, if a certificate has already expired, the entire training and examination process must be completed again from the beginning (i.e. starting from the A1/A3 level) in order to renew it.
