DroneID Makes It Easy to Show Your UAS Registration

In December 2015, the FAA began requiring that all small “unmanned aerial systems” (more commonly known as drones, quadcopters, etc.) weighing more that .55 pounds be registered - even if used for hobby and recreational flying. As part of these requirements, drone pilots are required to provide their proof of registration on demand. DroneID makes this easy by including your FAA registration information on a high-quality easy-to-carry card, including access to your original FAA registration documentation!

Does This Register Me as a Drone/UAS Pilot With The FAA?

DroneID is a supplemental identification for drone/UAS pilots not issued by a government entity. Purchasing a DroneID does NOT register you with the FAA. If you have not yet registered as a UAS pilot, click here to go to the FAA UAS Registration site.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is The DroneID Officially Recognized?

The DroneID is a supplemental identification card not issued by a government agency. It allows you to easily show you are a registered UAS pilot and to bring up your proof of registration via the included QR code. It should not by itself be considered an officially recognized proof of registration, though it does make it easier for you to access your official proof of registration provided you upload it when ordering your DroneID card.

Is the DroneID Acceptable Proof of Registration?

While the DroneID by itself does not constitute government-issued proof of registration, by attaching an image or PDF of your FAA-provided proof of registration from when you registered your drone, you can use the DroneID to access this proof. Per FAA guidelines, providing proof of registration electronically IS acceptable. See the FAA Registration FAQ for more info.
