Frequently asked questions
General
The drone licence is valid for 5 years, after which you have to take another exam.
In the Netherlands, the A1/A3 and A2 drone pilot licences require a minimum age of 16.
If you are under 16 years old, you can also get the A1/A3 and A2 drone flying licence, however, you will only be allowed to fly under the supervision of someone who is 16 or older and has their A1/A3 and A2 drone flying licence.
Other age limits may apply in other countries.
You need an operator number if you own 1 or more drones with a camera or weighing 250 grams or more. By applying for an operator number, you are registered as the owner (operator). You only need 1 operator number even if you have several drones.
You apply for an operator number in the first country where you will fly in Europe.
If that is the Netherlands, you can apply to the RDW for an operator number. Click here for more information.
The application in Belgium is through the FPS Mobility and Transport click here for more information.
In Germany, this goes through the LBA, click here to start registration.
To apply for a Remote ID, you first need an operator number.
Drones labelled C1, C2 or C3 new to the market from 1 January 2024 will have Remote ID.
Also, many existing drones already have Remote ID built in. Note that this feature is not always activated. Check the supplier or manufacturer's website to see if your drone has Remote ID.
If your current drone does not have a Remote ID and it is required, there are 2 options:
- From the manufacturer of your drone, you will receive a message with a software update that activates the Remote ID function on your drone.
- You can use a special module (add-on) buy. That is a Remote ID transmitter that you can attach to your drone.

With this training in your pocket, you will be allowed to fly in both A1/A3 and A2 categories. This means you are allowed to fly a drone up to 25 kilograms.
Keep in mind that the drone must be registered in many cases. The drone is allowed to fly a maximum height of 120 metres and must also remain within direct sight of the pilot. With a drone up to 4 kg in the A2, you are allowed to get up to 5 metres horizontal distance near people with a low-speed function. Without a low-speed function, it is 30 metres horizontal distance. However, there is a general ban on flying above (groups of) uninvolved persons. In A1/A3, the drone should stay at 150m from buildings, industry and recreational areas. In A2 only at 75m from built-up infrastructure.
