Dumb question but I'll ask it anyway. I have traveled often without registration with US Customs (most recently to Poland). How do I register my Mavic Mini 4 Pro with US Customs before a flight from Miami to Johannesburg, with overnight stay in Qatar? (Zimbabwe safari in September).

I’ve done it with cameras, computers, drones and other expensive stuff, especially when new:

I live on Vancouver Island in British Columbia, Canada and have been fly drones here for seven years since I started this hobby. National Parks and Provincial Parks are no fly zones, but no one seems to police the rules. Unless you do something stupid. Police and the RCMP have no interest in where drones are flying and if you fly a sub 250 gm drone the regulations are don’t be stupid like flying at the land and harbor airports or final approach and take off flight paths. National Parks are too large to patrol with only a few park rangers to patrol these parks that cover vast areas. People here are cool about drones here and are only interested in your drone and not where you are flying it unless you are reckless and doing stupid stuff.
