韩国:检查用无人机规则
韩国依据《航空安全法》将无人机作为超轻型飞行器监管。用于商业的无人机无论重量都必须申报或注册,2 kg 以上的非商业无人机同样受到管理。飞手证书按重量分级,从 4 级(250 g 以上至 2 kg,在线课程)到 1 级(25-150 kg)。夜间和 BVLOS 飞行需要特别飞行批准,须提交 KIAST 文件并接受现场审查,标准办理时间为 30 天,且必须投保。首尔首都圈的大部分区域属于禁飞或限制空域,需要事先批准。单独的航拍许可已不再强制,但拍摄安全设施仍会受到处罚。

| 主管部门 | 国土交通部 (MOLIT)、韓国交通安全公団 (TS)、航空安全技術院 (KIAST) / Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport (MOLIT); Korea Transportation Safety Authority (TS); Korea Institute of Aviation Safety Technology (KIAST, safety inspections for special flight approval) |
| 主要框架 | Aviation Safety Act (항공안전법), Articles 122-131-2 on ultra-light vehicles, which include unmanned powered flying devices, together with its Enforcement Rules. The English statute listing reviewed is the version promulgated on 19 March 2024, but it showed article headings only, not their text. The Drone Utilization Promotion Act (2020) was not reviewed (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22). |
| 注册 | Drones used for business must be reported or registered whatever their weight (processing takes about 7 days). Non-business drones of 2 kg or less are exempt. Applications go through the Drone One-Stop portal (drone.onestop.go.kr). The over-2 kg threshold for non-business drones comes from the general rule and was not read in the statute itself (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22). |
| 远程识别(Remote ID) | No Remote ID mandate was found in the sources reviewed (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22). |
| 飞手执照 | Pilot certificates for unmanned multicopters are graded by maximum take-off weight. Class 4 covers over 250 g to 2 kg and is earned through an online course and test. Class 3 covers over 2 kg to 7 kg (6 h of flight experience), Class 2 over 7 kg to 25 kg (10 h), and Class 1 over 25 kg to 150 kg (20 h). No certificate is needed at 250 g or less. Flying without the required certificate can bring a fine of up to KRW 3 million. Source: a Seoul city article from 2022; the start date of 12 March 2021 was not checked (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22). |
| 风险类别 | Certificates are graded by weight, as above. Flight approval is needed in controlled, prohibited and restricted airspace, above 150 m, and for unmanned powered vehicles over 25 kg. |
| 超视距(BVLOS) | Night and BVLOS flights need special flight approval (특별비행승인) under Aviation Safety Act Article 129(5). Applications go through the Drone One-Stop portal. KIAST reviews the documents and the flight route against airspace, may inspect on site (drone, route, hazards, monitoring, observer communication, emergency procedures such as lost link, collision avoidance), and then approval is issued. Applicants need a pilot certificate, commercial insurance, safety certification for UAVs over 25 kg, a UAV fact sheet and a flight plan. The standard processing time is 30 days. In 2019-2022, 1,744 applications led to 1,402 approvals, about 6% of them for facility inspection. |
| 夜间与人员上空 | Under the general operator rules: no flights at night (sunset to sunrise) without special flight approval; no flying over crowds; no flying under the influence of alcohol; no dropping objects. |
| 靠近结构物 | Seoul and the surrounding capital area lie within prohibited and restricted airspace (including P-73), so flights there need prior approval through the Drone One-Stop portal, applied for 3-5 days ahead. Unapproved flights can be fined up to KRW 5 million (Aviation Safety Act Art. 161). A separate aerial photography permit is no longer mandatory, but filming restricted or security facilities is punishable in any case. Applying in advance is still advised, to find out whether a site contains a restricted facility. No specific rule on power lines or railways was found (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22). |
| 室内与受限空间 | (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22) |
| 影像与隐私 | Personal Information Protection Act; filming restricted facilities is prohibited (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22, apart from the facility-filming point, which comes from the Seoul city guidance). |
| 近期变化 | The Seoul city guidance (updated April 2026) says a separate aerial photography permit is no longer mandatory, though filming restricted facilities remains punishable. When this changed was not checked. Other changes in 2024-2026 were not checked (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22). |
