EASA Proposes Lowering Drone Registration Threshold to 100 Grams — Recreational Flyers Face the Biggest Hit

The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has published draft regulation NPA 2026-103, proposing to lower the mandatory registration, training, and Remote ID threshold for drones from 250 grams to 100 grams — aligning with the UK's rules. The change would capture popular consumer models such as the DJI Mini and DJI Neo. At the same time, the draft eases administrative burdens for professional operators. Implementation is not expected before mid-2028, with the full regulatory framework unlikely to be operational until 2031.
