Empowering the Skies: Bahrain's Guided Path to Safe and Responsible Drone Usage.
The Kingdom of Bahrain has established a drone regulations framework that sets out the rules and regulations for the use of drones in the country. This framework is designed to ensure the safe and responsible use of drones and to protect public and property privacy.
In Bahrain, the sky is a realm of regulated innovation. The Civil Aviation Affairs (CAA), under the Ministry of Transportation & Telecommunications, stands as the guardian of this domain, setting forth specific rules for the operation of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). At the heart of these regulations is a clear mandate: UAVs gracing the Bahraini airspace shall obtain the proper permit from the CAA.
Aspiring drone operators approach this gateway with a sense of purpose. They must submit their application to operate an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV-Drones) to the CAA within a timeframe that is not less than seven (7) working days before the intended date of operation.
The applications to operate the UAV-Drones shall include the following:
Applications may be submitted either in soft copy to: drone.team@mtt.gov.bh or in hard copy to:
The Undersecretary of Civil Aviation Affairs
Civil Aviation Affairs
Ministry of Transportation and Telecommunications
P.O. Box 10325
Building 148 Road 2403 Muharraq 224
