Thanks for this just what I have been looking for as thinking of flying in Cyprus and Menorca with my Mini 3 Pro and Mavic 3 Pro .... As always superb content from you young man cheers Hieth
Going to Greece this summer but won't be taking my drone (mini3Pro). You have to submit a flight plan including a map of the flight area for EVERY flight and once approved you have to take proof of the approval to a police station before you fly, even for a sub 250g drone. Totally OTT and impractical so I'm very disappointed :(
Very useful and informative, thanks Sean
Thanks Sean. That’s really useful. I registered in the Alpha Tango (French) website back in 2021 from Spain. It has an excellent English version. I fly a lot in Greece with a mixture of Air 2S and a Mini 3 pro. Never a problem, excellent images.

I found this video very helpful in that we live in the U.S. and my wife (who is a native of Portugal) and I frequently travel to Portugal to visit family and to see our favorite attractions. I hold an FAA Part 107 UAS Pilot certification in the U.S. and fly for my own media company. I'd also like to fly in Portugal to create tourist-type media to show friends/family and was curious as to how to go about where to find the rules; this video has certainly helped. If I fly in Portugal, I'll probably take my DJI Air 2S and DJI Avata, both of which weigh more than 250 grams. Thanks, again.

Landed anyways just to keep the peace.

New subscriber, love your channel. I'm planning on taking my Mini 3 Pro to Europe from the US starting in Italy. It's a 2023 model, so does that make it a legacy drone and negates the advantages of being sub 250 grams? Also not able to register online with Italy. Going onto Austria for a few days. Appreciate any advice.
Thanks! I was able to register to fly in Norway. I just use sub 250g drones nowadays the quality is better than my original mavic pro was anyway. I would like the more telephoto lens option but a heavier drone just isn't worth it with so much more freedom with a smaller drone. I can't wait until we get a 70mm + equivalent on a mini sized drone and a pocket style gimbal device too.

As a Mini 3 pro owner I understand I need to be registered operator.

Can take test in Luxembourg (English) and then register drone for Spain, that's where I want to go. I'm based in UK have registration there.
Great video, explains it well. I thought it was in the 'too hard to do basket'. Seems if I register in Ireland, as going there on my way to Spain... and take the UK drone pilot course... I should be OK flying in remote villages throughout Spain where there are no flying restrictions that I can see on an app on my phone? Is that right? Planning on getting a DJI mini 4 pro as it has built-in ' won't crash' apparently which is a good idea I think as I have never flown anything before apart from Ryan Air! I will be visiting many remote villages, making a KZread series on " Can I work remotely in X" throughout remote Spain, so having drone footage of these villages will be key for the B role etc. I don't need to worry about Madrid, Barcelona and any big cities as not reviewing any town with more than 20,000 inhabitants. If that sounds like a plan be great to know if you agree or not before I invest in a drone and have it taken off me on day one :)

Great video but i still have no idea how to complete the required forms. The Luxembourg "link" is not intuitive; or not enough for me!
Hello, Thank you for this information. I am a US citizen and will be traveling throughout Spain for most of September. I went through the process of getting registered as a drone operator and received a UAS operator registration #. I use a DJI mini 3 pro that is less than 250g. It seems that I can fly under the open A1 category. As I look at the maps it seems as though there are many areas that say the flight of RPAS is prohibited. I am unfamiliar with this terminology. It seems that I will be required to purchase insurance, which I will do, but I don't know if I will have an opportunity to familiarize the A1-A3 requirements to the point of taking an exam. am I able to do things such as put my Mini 3 pro up in Barcelona to take a photo of La Sagrada Famiglia inside of a zone that says flight of RPAS is prohibited? Thanks again!
to start with the last question: I use a mavic air and since a few months also a mini 3. Since flying in Germany, where I live, is not always easy (people publish the content of their diapers on social media but tend to cry "privacy" as soon as they see a camera or drone!), I mostly fly in Sweden where people seem to be more relaxed. I prefer to fly early in the morning or later in the evening, since you have "softer" light. If there are people around the area I want to take of from, I mostly approach them, tell them that I intend to fly, checked the legality of the location and, if the are nterested, show them the maps. I also have cards with contact details and offer them a copy of the footage if they send me an email. Since flying my drone(s) now for six years, I only once had someone "complaining", but that was more about the sound that would "disturb the filmcrew in the castle..." I took his complain, got the drone back in and returned the next morning (with much better weather) and got the shots I wanted. If people approach me while flying, I tell them to wait untill I have safely landed the drone and so I have time and attention for them. Taking this five or ten minutes to explain the hobby, show some footage and maybe even show some direct flights takes away the concerns with most people, specially when they realize that from 120 meters above ground, you hardly recognize who is who on the ground (except me, caus I wear a blue high-visible cover while operating).

Hi there - I am looking to take my drone to Sweden this summer and would love to get some help to ensure I get all the pre planning right :) I'm based in the UK, and have my A2CofC and GVC certificate which I took here in the UK earlier this year. I'm planning on getting a DJI Mini 3 in Sweden (price difference), and fly it to film my friend's boat on the coast (in permitted areas ofc). The drone will be insured. I have my Flyer ID, and my Operator ID (and this will be stickered to the drone too), both obtained in the UK. I'm Danish so I have a Danish passport, so I am wondering this - do I need to do any additional registering under EASA to fly in Sweden / Norway / Denmark ? And am I bound to register with Denmark, even though I plan to fly in Sweden first? Or shall I instead register in Sweden? Or do I not need to do any additional registering? Thanks so much in advance! :)

@@wildandabout2156 Good Evening (morning, afternoon, what ever is approriat) Since the rules in europe changed, it has become easier. I suppose that you are register as operator and the operator ID is on the drone. Like in the UK, there are flightrestrictions in areas around airports, prisons, nuclear plants etc, as well as natur reservats. RIght now, I am not in my office, but I will post here some lnks that are important. First, to the general dronemaps, showing the permanent restrictions put in place by the aircontroling authorities (LFV), then a link to the LFV where you can find NOTAM messages, which are not shown on the general maps. And finally two links to the lantmäteriet. In the first link you can see the maps of Sweden, zoom in and check if there is any naturreservat in the area you want to fly. IF so, you cannot fly there. The second one os important if you intend to publish your footage. You do not need permission to get the footage, but BEFORE you release it, you have to present the unedited version of the footage to get the permission to publish. The proces is simple, takes only a few days and is free of charge. In the past five years, I have sent them almost 1TB on footage and never had any restrictions for publication. Don't think thes don't find out that you publish without permission, I know ofat least two cases where people got a friendliy letter to let them know, that they violated the law with the included request, to submit the footage for release.
I, go to Tenerife about 3- 4 times per year. I’d love to take my Mini 3 Pro with me, but,, I downloaded the Enaire app ( Spanish equivalent of Altitude Angel) Seems vast swathes of the island are no fly areas. Also their rules are a lot more strict than they are here in the U.K. No flying over businesses, people etc. It seems anything that’s either fixed to the ground, or free to move, you can’t fly over them. So for now, I’m not bothering.
Just for interest, I was previously registered in Ireland, but they wanted something like 30-euro for a year's re-registration this year. So instead I registered in France, an d it was dead easy, and free.

I am just scanning Drone Assist for FRZs, some require authorisation to fly in and have a phone number listed so no problem there, but some also state "This peice of airspace is in effect above xxxft AGL" or "This peice of airspace is in effect above surface". So for those with an AGL specified, is it OK to fly below xxxft without authorisation and those "above surface" is it OK to fly below surface, within a gorge for example? Sorry for the long question, but any thoughts would be great.

Hi Sean thanks for that. I am easa registered in Ireland but I intend to take the drone to Norway.

Apparently the insurance costs about 150 euro. Do you know if this is the case there or anywhere else?
As suggested, I looked at registering in Luxembourg. Although reg seems free, it seems necessary to provide a current 3rd party insurance policy number in the application, which I don't have and would only get just before confirming if / when I will actually be flying there. So... I'm stuck proceeding with reg in Luxembourg. Pity.

We are taking a cruise via Celebrity which will take us from Barcelona, France, Italy and back to Barcelona.

I have the ff: registration numbers: Me as the pilot, my drone's and my A1/A3 certification #, Should I affix all thre numbers? Any advice will be much appreciated. Thnx!
Hello i am traveling to italy from Uae and i was trying to register as operator but its asking for C.F/CIF/T.I.N but i dont have what should i fill in this?
I went to Fuerteventura last year and I took the licence on the Spanish website despite being Italian as I found it very easy and quick to navigate through I think in some countries you need an online identify check which can be am headache unless you’re a resident
If you eu a2 license do you still need to take the test in uk ?
Can I fly Mavic Mini in ESA zone , coming from India, 1st country visit Italy, subsequently Switzerland, Austria, Germany and Czech Republic I have registered in Luxembourg
Great video but when I try to register for an operator license in Luxenberg or Denmark, they all require an ID from that country to start the process. How did you as a UK citizen get around this? I am a US citizen.

Having the same issue! Skimming thru the comments to see if anyone has a solution. Were you able to figure out how to register? Thanks!
In Portugal the register process is next to impossible unless you are a resident. They want you to do it legally but make it next to impossible to do so!!
Hi there do you how I can take my mini 4pro to Spain
Great video - Just recently got a mini 4 pro a few months ago - I thought it would be ok to fly in the EU with a sub 250g drone without having to go through another test - I have a flyer iD for the UK so do I still need to do the EU test to fly in the EU ?

Hi! You only need to register once in any of the EASA member states. It is advisable to check on local stipulations and requirements as well. There is a link to do that in the description of this video.
Many thanks for this guidance. So if i am correct i can register in Ireland and be ok to fly in Gran Canaria.

@Geeksvana Hi, thanks for your video. I'm wondering if I can register as an Drone Operator in one EASA Member Country and get the Flyer ID (Pilot Certificate A1/A3) in another EASA Member Country? Also, once I obtain the Pilot Certificate A1/A3 in, let's say Luxemburg, do I have to stick with Luxemburg if later on I want to obtain the A2 Certificate? Thanks!

Great questions! They are also topics I came across myself. So... 1. Yes, you can register in on EASA and take the A1/A3 in another. (Personally, I registered in Ireland and took the Luxembourg test. 2. You can take the A2 course and pass it with a company in any member state, unrestricted by where you are registered or took the A1/A3 test with. Hope this helps and thanks for watching!

Thanks for the very clear information Sean. Can anyone answer the question regarding insurance regulations? If we're operating a sub 250 drone is insurance required in the EU?...or is some of the information misleading and just trying to sell you a policy where none is needed. Many thanks!

Overall you are not required under EASA regs. However, some countries insist on at least third-party coverage and others 'expect' it. My recommendation is to get some third party insurance to cover yourself. I would recommend something like FPVUK. You get a lot of member benefits and a great insurance policy which is valid in the EU for around £20 for the year. Hope this helps.

@bryanstoneman842 thank you for your quick response as I was worried if I wouldn't be able to use my drone on holiday for recreation use. I would suggest reading the chapter if you are at the beginner stage. Questions were not easy or hard. But it' s very frustrating to review your answer if you fail. But the good thing is you can take unlimited tries to make sure you pass. It took me like 5 hours to pass as I skipped through manual reading and went for exams as you don't know which question you got wrong and you don't know the right answer. Make sure you have half a day to complete the test as it can be time consuming if you are getting the question not correct.

Apologies, I have only just seen this from the new comment popping up. You do not require insurance in Italy as a recreational flyer... HOWEVER, as a tourist you will find that most police would 'expect' it. A simple way to get covered would be to join FPVUK for £20 foe the year, you get millions of coverage and it works across Europe. Hope this helps.
