Drone operators with a valid CAA permission for commercial work

Guidance on hiring a drone operator for filming or photography

  • Not all commercial operations require an authorisation from the CAA. However, everyone who flies unmanned aircraft in the Specific category, including many commercial operators, must have an authorisation from the CAA.

    Every unmanned aircraft operator who has been granted an operational authorisation to conduct Specific category operations will have a document from us describing what they are able to do. 

    The list of current holders of the CAA permission is updated on a monthly basis.
