Hey everyone, I'll be travelling to Turkey soon and no matter how much I searched, I still don't know whether it's safe to take Mavic 2 Zoom with me. Can anyone help me out of experience whether I have to register it or else prior entering the country? Thank you
 
Hmm I just joined to ask the very the same. When do you travel? I read the following

Drone Laws in Turkey | UAV Coach (2019)

In short...

Taking a Drone Through Customs in Turkey
Foreign nationality citizens cannot register as a drone pilot in Turkey. Moreover, your drone will be seized by customs unless you have received technical confirmation for your UAVs from the Turkish DGCA.

To apply for technical confirmation, use Form-336 found in the forms section of the Turkish DGCA website. You may also be required to submit your criminal record from your embassy.

However I cannot locate form 336 and my Turkish non existent! so I'm at a loss
 
In 2018 I brought a Spark with me without problems. If I read the laws now, it seems that over 500 grams you have to register yourself which is only possible if you live in Turkye. So to go short: you can only bring a Spark or Air according the law.
