沙特阿拉伯:检查用无人机规则
沙特阿拉伯依据 GACAR Part 107 监管非娱乐用途的小型无人机(25 kg 以下),注册依据 Part 48。250 g 及以上的无人机必须注册;任何搭载可采集个人数据或测绘数据的传感器的无人机,无论重量,也都必须注册,这几乎涵盖了所有巡检无人机。飞手需要含安全审查的远程飞手证书,运营者需要授权证书。标准规则要求目视、仅限白天且 ≤400 ft AGL,但在建筑物 400 ft 范围内允许飞到其顶部以上 400 ft。AC 107-01(2025 年 6 月)将夜间、人员上方、BVLOS 和贴近建筑物的“高级运行”纳入经风险评估的授权程序(OA/UOC,接受 SORA)。

| 主管部门 | サウジアラビア民間航空総局 (GACA) / General Authority of Civil Aviation (GACA), Saudi Arabia |
| 主要框架 | GACAR Part 107 (non-recreational civil small unmanned aircraft systems, version 3.0; no issue date shown), GACAR Part 48 (registration and marking of small UA and model aircraft, version 3.0), and Advisory Circular AC 107-01 'Advanced Operations with UAS' (version 1.0, 3 June 2025). AC 107-01 sets out an Open/Specific-style approach. An older 2016 AC 101-01 under GACAR Part 101 Subpart F belongs to the previous case-by-case regime. |
| 注册 | Under GACAR Part 48, model aircraft and small UA of 250 g MTOW or more must be registered and marked. So must any aircraft, whatever its weight, carrying a sensor able to capture personal data or survey/geospatial information, which covers almost every inspection drone. Only Saudi citizens and lawful residents may register. Certificates are issued only after GACA Aviation Security clearance, are valid for 3 years, and the aircraft must show its registration number. |
| 远程识别(Remote ID) | Neither Part 107 nor Part 48 addresses Remote ID. AC 107-01 lists operations in UTM-designated airspace as advanced operations (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22) |
| 飞手执照 | Anyone acting as remote pilot in command needs a remote pilot certificate with a small UAS rating (Part 107.13). Requirements: age 18 or over, clearance by the GACA Aviation Security Division, English ability, knowledge and practical tests, and recurrent knowledge every 24 months. Commercial operators also need a Certificate of Authorization (Part 107.17). For advanced operations (night, over people, BVLOS beyond 1 km, dangerous goods), pilots need extra practical training certificates (AC 107-01). |
| 风险类别 | Small UA under 25 kg follow the standard Part 107 limits (an Open-like category). Advanced operations fall into a Specific category under Part 107 Subpart D. They need either an Operational Authorization (one-time or short-term) or a UAS Operator Certificate (longer-term, up to 3 years), backed by an operational risk assessment (SORA is accepted) and an operations manual. UA of 25-150 kg need an OA or UOC, and UA over 150 kg cannot use the Specific category. |
| 超视距(BVLOS) | BVLOS is an advanced operation. It needs an OA or UOC with a strong safety case and ATC approval for segregated airspace, a visual observer for FPV, insurance, and pilot training certificates for BVLOS beyond 1 km (AC 107-01). |
| 夜间与人员上空 | The standard Part 107 rules ban night flight, require anti-collision lights in civil twilight, and allow flight over people only if they are taking part or are under cover or inside a stationary vehicle. Night and over-people operations can be authorised by waiver or as advanced operations (OA/UOC). AC 107-01 calls a flight termination parachute a very effective mitigation over people. |
| 靠近结构物 | The limit is 400 ft AGL, except within a 400 ft radius of a structure, where flight up to 400 ft above its top is allowed (Part 107.59), which helps tower and tall-structure inspection. VLOS is required, with visibility of at least 5 km. ATC authorisation is needed in Class B/C/D airspace and airport surface areas, and permission in prohibited and restricted areas. AC 107-01 treats operations close to buildings or structures where people are present as hazardous advanced operations, and non-shielded operations near uncontrolled aerodromes need agreement with the aerodrome operator. |
| 室内与受限空间 | (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22) |
| 影像与隐私 | Registration is required for any drone with a sensor able to capture personal data or survey/geospatial information (Part 48). The Personal Data Protection Law (in force September 2023) applies (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22) |
| 近期变化 | AC 107-01 (3 June 2025) set up an advanced-operations route (Specific category, OA/UOC, SORA-based risk assessment, up to 150 kg). The issue dates of GACAR Part 107 and Part 48 version 3.0 were not shown in the documents (not verified against an official source, 2026-10-22) |
