An online platform for a free of charge registration of unmanned aerial vehicle operators (https://uas.gov.ge/) has been launched on the website of the Civil Aviation Agency (www.gcaa.ge).

According to the Civil Aviation Agency, it is now possible to electronically register the pilot of an unmanned aerial vehicle weighing more than 250 grams (both individuals and legal entities) through the online platform. After activating the account, users will have the opportunity to register their drone and pass the online test for the remote pilot competence, which is mandatory for operation in the “open category”.

The online platform enables users to obtain all the necessary information on national and international requirements related to drone operation.

The new rule of drone systems operation effective from January 1, 2021, determines the additional requirements for “open category” operation. In particular, the competence of remote pilots, unmanned aerial vehicle marking and remote identification.
