Slovenia
Strict or complexEU rules plus strict populated-area and geo-zone limits
Slovenia is beautiful but tighter than it looks. Triglav, built-up places, roads, and tourist areas can quickly become permission-first.
The trip, step by step
- Bring it
- The alpine shots are often managed land or protected areas. Ask before launching in parks and villages.
- Register it
- Use the national aviation authority portal unless you are already registered as a UAS operator in another EASA member state where that registration is accepted.
- Fly it
- EU/EASA Open Category rules apply. Operator registration and pilot competency depend on drone class, weight, camera/sensor equipment, and where you fly.
- Map check
- Check CAA Slovenia geographical restrictions and announcement requirements before flying.
Before you travel
- 01Confirm operator registration, remote pilot competency, and insurance rules before travel.
- 02Check the national UAS map or authority guidance for the exact launch area.
- 03Get written permission for restricted zones, protected places, events, and private or managed launch sites.
Operating notes
- Max altitude
- 120 m AGL in Open Category unless a national UAS zone sets a lower limit.
- Commercial work
- Low-risk commercial work can fit Open Category when all limits are met. Specific Category work, higher-risk filming, BVLOS, crowd proximity, and controlled-zone work need authorization.
