Drone pilot questions — Thailand
What licence do I need to fly drones commercially in Thailand?
Thailand requires drones to be registered with the NBTC and CAAT. Commercial operations need permission and a pilot licence, with a 90 m limit. Commercial work: CAAT/NBTC registration + permission for commercial use. The drone itself also has to be registered. Always confirm the current rules with CAAT (Thailand) before you fly — HireDronePilot never issues, sells or trains licences, and the operating authorisation is your responsibility.
Is it free to list drone services in Thailand?
Yes. Creating a profile and listing your services is free — there is no listing fee and no paid placement. You set your own day, weekly, monthly and trial-day rates, and you decide which hire requests to accept.
Do I need my own drone and insurance to join?
Yes — you fly your own equipment and are responsible for your own insurance, registration and operating authorisation. Your profile is where you show certifications, licences, the aircraft you fly and your portfolio, so clients can see exactly what they are booking.
