NON-EU Pilots in Austria

https://www.modellflugsport.at/2021/04/13/registrierung-kompetenznachweis-fuer-auslaendische-gaeste/

By the way, this year we are confronted with this problem for the first time:
Participants from non-EU countries MUST register in the country where they want to run a model for the first time!

You can find detailed info here under the link above.

 

Registration for guests from EU countries:
Every EU citizen, regardless of citizenship, must register in the country where they have their primary residence. The registration number must be displayed on all his unmanned aerial vehicles (model aircraft).
Registration for guests from third countries:
These persons must register in the EU country where they first operate an unmanned aircraft (model aircraft). The registration number must be affixed to all their unmanned aircraft (model aircraft).
The examination of the certificate of competence
is the same for all pilots of any origin. If model flight is operated at a model flying site registered with Austro Control, no proof of competence is required until 31 December 2022. If you operate a model aircraft on a greenfield site, the certificate of competence must already be passed now. This is possible in every member state of the EU.
Further obligations:
A valid model aircraft liability insurance with sufficient coverage is also a mandatory requirement for flight operations. A certificate of insurance, the confirmation of registration and the certificate of the (possibly required) proof of competence must be carried during flight operations and presented to the police upon request.
Competent authority:
In Austria, Austro Control GmbH is entrusted with the registration and the passing of the certificate of competence and can be reached at www.dronespace.at around the clock.
Registration currently costs €31.20 and is valid for 3 years.
Please note: Payment is currently only possible online and is limited to Visacard and Mastercard (with debit function).
The certificate of competence is free of charge and valid for 5 years.
