List Of Certified Drones
The European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA) has released new regulations that will require all drones operating in the European Union to be marked with a Class Identification Label from January 1st, 2024. The new regulation aims to improve safety and security in the airspace and enable authorities to identify the drone and its operator easily.
The Class Identification Label is a standardised label that categorises drones based on their weight, capability, and potential risk. The regulation outlines seven classes, with each class having a unique label that must be displayed on the drone. In this article, we will focus on the drones that already have the Class Identification label.
Drones With Class Identification Label
Here are the drones that already have the Class Identification Label, their respective labels, and
their manufacturers:
| Label | Drone Model | Manufacturer |
|---|---|---|
| C0 | Mini 2 SE Mini 3 & Mini 3 Pro Mini 4 Pro (Fly More Combo) | DJI DJI DJI |
| C1 | Mavic 3 Classic, Mavic 3 v2.0, & Mavic 3 Cine v2.0 Air 3 | DJI DJI |
| C2 | Sensefly eBee Mavic 3E EU, Mavic 3T EU & Mavic 3M EU Matrice M30 EU & Matrice M30T EU | AgEagle DJI DJI |
| C3 | Trinity F90+ Inspire 3 Matrice 350 RTK WingtraOne UX 11 (Camera AG,IR,RGB) & UX 11 Longue (Elongation Camera AG,IR,RGB) | Quantum System DJI DJI Wingtra Delair |
| C5 | M350 RTK (through kit developed by Flyingeye) | DJI DJI Objectifdrone Objectifdrone Aerobotic Aerobotic Aerobotic Dronavia Dronavia Dronavia Flyingeye Flyingeye Flyingeye |
| C6 | UX11 Agry X Spay – L Spay – S | Delair Aerobotic Aerobotic Aerobotic |
As shown in the table, these drones have different weights, capabilities, and potential risks, which
are the basis for their classification. The C0 Label is the lightest and the least risky, while the C6 Label is the
heaviest and the most capable.
With the new regulation coming into effect, we can expect to see more and more drones being certified and equipped with
the required Class Identification Label. This will not only promote safer drone operation but also create a more
organised and structured drone ecosystem in the European Union.

Good afternoon,
Can you provide any information on other current active drones that do not have a label at this moment?
Will they be allowed in the future, or in what way can I as a private person arrange my drone, a DJI Air 2S, receive a label?
Kind regards,

Hi Wouter,
There are more than 1,000 drone models in the market. The only 4 that do have a Class Identification Label, are the ones published in this list.
Only manufacturers (not operators) can apply for Class Identification Label.
We hope this solved your doubts.
Best Regards,
Niels
Good afternoon! Nice collection! Where can i verify that the Trinity F90+ has its C-class? Where can i find it in written form? Thank you for your answer in advance!
Dear Csaba,
Quantum-Systems can provide you with a declaration of conformity!
I hope this has answered your question.
Best regards,
Niels
Good day,
May i have an other question? Is it possible that DJI Mini 2SE will be next year a legacy drone…useable in A1? It is the only in the seties which user manual declares the MTOM as it is, out of the box…the others does not have such an MTOM remark…
Thx: Csaba
Dear Csaba,
From January 1st, 2024, All drones without a Class Identification Label will become legacy drones. Legacy drones with a MTOM of <250 grams will be able to fly in the A1 scenario.
Best regards,
Niels
Dji Mavic 3 pro is C2 Classed
Should be included in the list
What about Mavic 3 Pro? It has a C2 label, but does it have C2 certificate?
Hi Valdemar, the DJI Mavic 3 Pro has both the Class Identification Label and Declaration of Conformity. Thanks for your comment!
Hi Örjan, it is already included in the list, thanks!
Hello,
is it possible to read somewhere what prerequisites were used when certifying drones from the list above? What parameters must be met for the drone to receive such certification? There are a lot of drones on the market weighing more than 500 grams but less than 900 grams or even 4 KG. It’s enigmatic why users of other drones have not yet received information in what categories they will be after 01/01/2024.
Found it here.
Hello,
Are the DJI Mini 3 Pro or the Exo Mini classified under the new C category? If so how can I know their new category?
Thank you!

Hi,
does anyone have an info on the DJI Mavic 3 Enterprise series (3E / 3T)? Will DJI issue a declaration of conformity until end of the year.
The 3T would be one of the few drones with thermal camera for e.g. PV inspections, but if it falls into A3 its useless for such tasks.
Could you please describe what will be the situation and classification for DJI Avata (<900g).
Can you confirm that it is A1 which is under C1 so it will comply with rules starting from 2024?
Thanks, Attila
Hi Miki,
All the certification requirements for C0-C4 UAS are included in the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2019/945. The ones for the C5 – C6 classes, are in the Commission Delegated Regulation (EU) 2020/1058, which is an amendment of the previous one.
You can also see the tests involved here.
We hope this helps!
Dear Attila,
Unfortunately, only DJI knows the certification status of Avata. By now, it has not been certified yet.
Hi François,
Until today, there are no C0 certifications in the market.
You can find in this blog all the information regarding classes:

Thanks for asking!
Hi Christoph,
To date, DJI hasn’t published any information regarding the Mavic 3 Enterprise series (3E / 3T).
For being 1.05 kg, it would fall under C2.
Thanks for asking!
Hi Attila,
Only the manufacturer has information regarding the certification process.
Yes, we can confirm that < 900 g of MTOM would fall under C1. You can check the differences between classes in this article: https://eudroneport.com/blog/uas-class-label/
Best regards,
Thank you for the information.
Is there an overview for older DJI drones? Example a Mavic Air 1..
Hi Peter,
This list only includes the already certified drones. You can find all the information either in the manufacturer’s declaration of conformity or in th user’s manual.
Thanks!
Has the new DJI Mavic Mini 4 Pro been certified?
Hi Thomas, it has just been released this week!
Hello,
Urgent: Where can I download the “EU DECLARATION OF CONFORMITY” for the DJI mini 4 PRO?
Thank you,
Natalie
Hi Natalie,
You can find all DJI’s declaration of conformity in this link:

As of my last update, there is no official information available about a DJI Mavic 3 Fly More Combo. The DJI Mavic series is known for its compact size, advanced features, and high-quality aerial photography capabilities. However, DJI periodically releases new drone models, so it’s possible that a DJI Mavic 3 and a corresponding Fly More Combo may be released in the future.

Hello, I have some question:
For ınstance there are 2 type of drones whıch were self produced. (do not have ant C-Classing)
First UAV: is a sub 25kg configuration.
Another UAV: is a 35kg platform, but the intended flight altitude is such that the typical kinetic energy will be limited to sub 34kJ (in accordance with Intrinsic UAS Ground Risk Class <34kJ class).
Both drones are below 3m principal dimensions.
Question 1: I am wondering about the requirements for C-Classing of the drones, when they are used in the specific category. Our understanding is that the UAV with its sub 25kg configuration can be used in accordance with suggested PDRA’s (s-01, S-02 , G01, G02 and G03).
Would the UAS have to bear a C-Class, or have any form of DVR associated with it to be used in any of these PDRA’s ?
Question 2: For the second UAV which is above 25kg – I see that the PDRA’s that could be used are G01, G02, and G03 – without a DVR or C-class mark.
o What do you think ?
Question 3: For UAV which is above 25kg, in a NON PDRA operation – the operator would have to complete the SORA assessment. If the given assessment classifies into SAIL 2 – My understanding is that the UA does not need to have a DVR.
What do you think ?
Question 4: If the given assessment classifies into SAIL 3 – My understanding is that the UA needs a DVR. I have also heard conflicting information regarding that it could potentially be operated WITHOUT a DVR.
A DVR could be either a full DVR or a Functional Test based MOC ( https://www.easa.europa.eu/en/downloads/136564/en )
Could you confirm which of the cases is true? Would SAIL3 require DVR in 2024?
Thank you
Dear Ajay,
As you will see in the above list, as far as we understand, there is only DJI Mavic 3 & DJI Mavic 3 Cine certified as per today.
Thanks for reaching out!

Hello!
Can I fly with DJI Nini 3 Pro, manufactured before January 1, 2023, unlabeled, with mass <250 g and with MTOM not declared at that time by the manufacturer?
Thank you !
Hello Fratila, DJI Mini 3 Pro is certified under C0. It can fly in A1.
