EASA also wants stronger operator identity verification

The same Opinion proposes requiring Member States to verify the identity of UAS operators before registration and clarifies the framework for geographical zones and national conditions.

Registration is moving closer to an enforceable identity layer rather than a self-declared database entry.

Commercial operators should expect registration data, Remote ID and geographical-zone compliance to become more tightly connected. Model-aircraft clubs may receive specific alleviations under the proposal.
