Hi guys,
I’m going to Thailand in a month, and I really want to bring my DJI Mavic Air with me. But I realized that flying it legally in Thailand isn’t as easy as you would think. I’ve looked everywhere and read on all kind of different sites, but in the end I hear different things all the time.
So instead of linking all kind of things to me I’d appreciate some guidance from you guys who might experienced this first hand.
As far as I can tell it is legal to bring a drone into the country. However, if I want to fly I have to register it with NBTC which can’t be done online. (Haven’t found any links that work)
Instead it has to be registered in one of the offices in Thailand for example the one in Bangkok. Has anyone went through this process and can you tell me what I need beforehand?
I also heard that you have to register your drone with CAAT but as far as i can see it’s only if you are gonna use it for commercial use. Is that true?
Other questions:
Thank you so much in advance. I know it’s a lot to ask for, but I just really want to bring my drone and snap some epic shots!

Other questions:
- Can i bring the drone with me in my carry on + the batteries in a LiPo bag? (Flying with Emirates)
- Is it legal to bring a drone into the country if you haven’t registered anything? (Just to be sure)
- Does any of you know if I can fly my drone in Koh Tao, are they strict there?
