Last update

 

  • When an UAS operator, registered in a Member State other than Luxembourg, intends to conduct an operation in the SPECIFIC category that will take place partially or entirely in Luxembourg airspace, his/her operation is considered a Cross-border operation.

 

To apply for a CBO, please follow the 2 steps described below:

 

 

  • The UAS operator will apply to its National Aviation Authority (NAA) of registration (Member State of registration) for :
    • An operational authorization, or
    • A LUC

according to the intended operation.

  • Then, after evaluation and validation, the NAA of registration will issue:
    • An Operational authorization, or
    • A LUC certificate,

according to the intended operation.

 

 

The UAS operator will then apply for a cross-border operation to the DAC (MS of operation) by:

  • Downloading and filling in the DAC UAS 408 form (Pdf, 1.16 Mb),
  • Joining a copy of the operational authorization or the LUC Certificate delivered by his/her NAA of registration, and
  • Joining additional information on the location(s) of the intended operation including the updated mitigation measures,

to be sent by email to the following address: uas@av.etat.lu

After assessment and validation of the above mentioned documents, the DAC will issue a confirmation of acceptance, according to the intended operation.
