Drone Registration and Permit Inquiry (İHA Kayıt ve İzin Belgesi Sorgulama)

Drones .. Verify Registration and Permit Before You Fly

The use of unmanned aerial vehicles (drones) in Turkey has become governed by strict laws that include mandatory registration and obtaining flight permits depending on the weight of the drone and its intended use. The "İHA Kayıt ve İzin Belgesi Sorgulama" service, provided by the Turkish Directorate General of Civil Aviation (Sivil Havacılık Genel Müdürlüğü) via e-Devlet, allows you to instantly check the registration status of your drone, the validity of its flight permit, and any legal restrictions recorded against it. Whether you are a hobbyist or a professional, this service gives you peace of mind before every flight.

After logging into e-Devlet with your personal password, search for the Sivil Havacılık İHA Kayıt ve İzin Sorgulama service. You will need to enter the drone's registration number or the owner's national ID number. Details of the drone will appear: model, weight, registration status (active, cancelled, under review), and the type of permit granted. You can print the status report to present upon request by security or municipal authorities.

Do not risk violating Turkish civil aviation law; fines for operating an unregistered or unlicensed drone can be heavy and may lead to confiscation of the device. Use this service to verify your legal standing, and remember that registration alone is not enough for all areas — you may need special permits for aerial photography or flying near airports and sensitive facilities. Make sure to update your data periodically and stay informed of new instructions issued by the Directorate General of Civil Aviation.
