Drones Now Need a Permit to Be Flown in Malaysia
Drones are becoming increasingly popular in Malaysia, but they will now need a permit to be flown. The Civil Aviation Authority of Malaysia (CAAM) has announced that all drones weighing under 20kg must be registered and have a permit before they can be flown.
The permit fee for drones weighing less than 20kg is RM250, and applications must be submitted at least 14 days prior.
The new regulations are in place to ensure the safety and security of the public. Drones can pose a risk to aircraft if they are flown too close to airports or other airspaces. They can also be used to invade people’s privacy or to commit crimes.
The CAAM has said that it will be working with drone operators to ensure that they are aware of the new regulations and that they are complying with them.
The new regulations are a welcome step in ensuring the safe and responsible use of drones in Malaysia. They will help to prevent accidents and ensure that drones are used for their intended purposes.
In addition to the new regulations, the CAAM has also released a set of guidelines for drone operators. These guidelines include advice on how to fly drones safely and responsibly.
If you are planning to fly a drone in Malaysia, it is important to be aware of the new regulations and to ensure that you are complying with them. You can find more information about the new regulations here.
