Egypt’s Drone Laws Exposed: The 2025 Guide to Permits, No-Fly Zones, and Penalties

Egypt’s Drone Laws Exposed: The 2025 Guide to Permits, No-Fly Zones, and Penalties

Under Law 216 of 2017, Egypt requires a Defense Ministry permit to own or operate a drone, effectively banning recreational use without authorization.
