Oman is taking a significant step toward regulating drone traffic with the launch of the 'Serb' platform. Officially licensed by the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA), the system aims to provide a safe and efficient way for drone enthusiasts to register their devices and obtain the necessary permits for recreational flying. The platform is set to go live on the evening of January 28, 2025.
What the Platform Offers
The 'Serb' platform will be accessible to the public, allowing users to easily register their drones and request authorizations for safe recreational flights. Designed to be user-friendly, it is expected to cater to both seasoned drone operators and newcomers.
Safety First: Green Zones and Compliance
To ensure safety, the CAA has designated specific green zones where drones can operate. These zones have been carefully selected in coordination with military and security agencies. Users are urged to strictly follow these guidelines to avoid any safety risks.
The CAA has made it clear that failure to comply with the platform’s rules will result in legal consequences, with no tolerance for violations once the platform is live.
A Step Towards Innovation and Responsibility
The launch of the 'Serb' platform aligns with Oman’s vision to foster technological innovation while ensuring public safety and environmental protection. This initiative is a major step forward in managing drone traffic responsibly and providing a secure environment for drone enthusiasts.
