**Drone Regulation Compliance** is a service specifically designed for companies and organizations utilizing drones in their operational activities. Energy companies (line monitoring), construction firms, agro-holdings, and security services require a systemic approach to ensure their drone fleet remains consistently legal. This involves more than just one-time registration; it includes pilot qualification management, technical inspections, logbook maintenance, and adherence to safety protocols. Non-compliance can lead to license suspension and business interruption.

Legal.ge offers outsourced Compliance services ensuring your drone operations fully align with Civil Aviation Agency requirements and international standards.

### What does the Drone Compliance Service cover?

We handle the bureaucratic side of your aerial operations:

-   **Fleet Management:** Maintaining the drone registration database and monitoring deadlines.
-   **Pilot Monitoring:** Checking the validity of employee certificates and planning retraining.
-   **Safety Audit:** Reviewing internal procedures — how drones are stored and checked before flights.
-   **SORA (Specific Operations Risk Assessment):** Preparing risk assessment documents for complex flights for the Agency.
-   **Incident Reporting:** Managing mandatory reporting of aviation occurrences.

### Common Real-World Scenarios

Corporate challenges:

-   **Expired License:** A company pilot's certificate expired, causing the insurer to refuse a damage claim.
-   **Missing Documentation:** Inspection revealed the company was not maintaining flight logs (Logbooks).
-   **Wrong Category:** The company was flying under "Open" category rules when its operation fell under "Specific."

### Legal Framework: Operator Obligations

Drone operation rules oblige the operator (organization) to implement a safety management system. This is especially relevant for LUC (Light UAS Operator Certificate) holders, who have the privilege of self-authorizing flights based on internal procedures.

### Step-by-Step Service Process

1.  **Diagnostics:** Checking existing processes.
2.  **System Implementation:** Creating documentation templates.
3.  **Training:** Instructing managers and pilots.
4.  **Audit:** Periodic checks on standards adherence.
