that's outburst in today's video I'm
going to be talking about the specific
steps you need to do first before you
can do this but today I'm talking about
the new laws and the registration
process required and are mandatory and
are going to take effect from April 2nd
2020 basically if your drone is 250
grams and above and if you don't
register in getting caught by the
authorities while flying
you can definitely be facing a heavy
fine of up to $20,000 and even jail time
of up to one year
so it's honestly not worth it and to the
15 SGD dollars you'd be paying for the
registration fee I mean 20 G's could buy
your DJI inspire to freemium with cash
to spare on a couple of other drones and
accessories as well speaking of which if
your drone is a DJI mini which is
cleverly weighing in at 249 grams you're
in a clear and you don't need to
register it but still that doesn't mean
you should be an idiot and flight near
airports and sensitive security areas
and by doing so you'd still of course be
facing the fines and jail time so let's
get out of here quickly to somewhere
safe so I don't want to jail I'm joking
of course as I'm recording this it's way
before April 2nd 2020 and my throne is
registered any hope let's go back to my
company place to show you how to
register your drone
so before you fly it's important firstly
that you get the drone registration
sticker from the Singapore Post website
now you can order it online or buy it
from the designated locations as stated
once you have the sticker you then go to
the CAA s website to upload pictures of
your drone with the registration sticker
attached to it now you'll need to paste
the sticker clearly and on parts not
removable for example like the batteries
crops or controller it must be on the
drone itself besides the pictures what's
needed are your details in your drone
and flight controllers serial numbers by
the way the website is pretty useful and
even shows drone users how you can get
the serial numbers themselves basically
they either found underneath the drone
battery compartment most also the flight
serial number is usually in the
information or cut out options in your
own drone app and no worries if you're
not living in Singapore and just
visiting here you can register online
with your passport but you need to also
create the UA ie but you still need to
get the registration sticker first for
this you either have to go down to any
of the singapore post offices listed in
the website or use the singapore
friend's address to be then mailed to
and they can collect it from mmm club
unfortunately at this time the
authorities won't mailed stickers to
overseas addresses for Singaporeans and
PRS you can get up to a total of five
registration stickers or labels but for
foreigners you sadly only get one now it
does say you can write in for special
permission to get an additional
registration sticker or two but
realistically you only need one unless
you
the billion drones then I really want to
be your friend just an added note I also
mentioned in my previous video that the
Marina Bay Sands area was a grey zone of
drone flying as I wasn't sure at the
time but I did speak to a raft over the
phone from caas and it turns out you can
find it
however the whole MBS and Gardens by the
bay area's actually are privately owned
but they're open to the public
so you just have to fly over the waters
or if you really need to seek permission
you have to do so from the owners
meaning MBS of course if you're flying
over MBS the security guards they have
the authority to stop you and I would
also add as mentioned by caas is that if
you see an airplane flying by or
helicopters in the area it's advisable
to stop flying until they box again this
is not to prevent you from having fun
with your drones are taking great
holiday videos it's to make it safer for
everyone and also it lets the
authorities have an easier time to track
down drone pilots who do stupid things
to make the rest of those responsible
ones look bad so if you thought this
video was useful
hum that like button with your finger
would subscribe and check out my other
videos about Singapore and even some
travel ones I made with the aid of my
trusty drone as well say flying I have
