Register or certify firstEU rules, dense airspace, and daylight-only operations
The Netherlands is small and airspace is busy. Use the map first, then decide if the shot is realistic.
The trip, step by step

- Register it
- Use ILT guidance and EASA-compliant operator registration where required.
- Fly it
- EU Open Category registration and training rules apply based on drone and operation. Dutch guidance limits normal drone flying to the daylight period.
- Map check
- GoDrone shows restrictions and airspace guidance.
