Indian drone regulationsFlying drones is now legal in India Official Drone Regulation PDF

Drone use is limited by state and will require cumbersome registration processes.

The DGCA uses the term remotely piloted aircraft (RPA) to describe an unmanned aircraft piloted from a remote pilot station, differentiating them from model aircraft.

Most operators will require a permit (UAOP) but nano and micro drones flying low or inside are exempted.


Drone Classification

Nano : Less than or equal to 250 grams.Micro : From 250 grams to 2kg.Small : From 2kg to 25kg.Medium : From 25kg to 150kg.Large : Greater than 150kg. Before every single flight in India, drone pilots are required to request permission to fly via a mobile app, which will automatically process the request and grant or reject it.


The Indian government has said that while it restricts the use of drones, it has not banned their import.

Foreigners are currently not allowed to fly drones in India.

The Indian Customs Declaration Form has been revised to include drones in the list of prohibited and dutiable goods. It is now mandatory for the passengers to declare it.

Passengers entering India will now have to declare their possession of drones upon arrival. They will also have to pay an extra duty on it.

Am I allowed to bring drones into India? Will it get confiscated by airport customs or security?

There is plenty of evidence of travellers taking their drone into India, and using it. Your obligation will be to declare the drone, and head for the Red Channel when you reach customs.

India has plenty of no-fly zones especially anywhere near an international border, military areas and airport areas.

There are some instances of tourists getting arrested for flying drones.

If you want to use a drone for a event i suggest to hire one.

Trying to deal with the Indian Customs is pointless. Indian bureaucracy is not the best. It'll take you forever to get any kind of clarification, if at all.

Traveling to the United States to meet your loved ones can be a wonderful experience, but it is also important to ensure that everyone is safe and protected along the way.

Good Idea or Waste of Money?

Traveling to USA always involves risks, such as the risk of getting sick or having an accident, losing or having your valuables stolen, missed flights and even the loss of life in extreme cases.

Travel Medical insurance primarily provides coverage if you were to unexpectedly get sick or injured while visiting United States, and paying for a travel insurance premium is one of those things you pay for in the hopes you never need to use it.

Honestly, buying travel insurance is not cheap. Peace of mind is priceless!


Healthcare is extremely expensive in the United States, Don't take chances without visitors insurance.

Sometimes you wonder if its good deal or a ripoff.


Cost is an important factor. It usually depends on the traveler's age, coverage amount limit, and type of plan.

Comprehensive travel insurance plans cover certain type of travel related coverage, such as baggage loss, and travel-related emergencies.

GST on Imports in India
Would there be any changes on BCD (Basic Customs Duty) after GST? Are there any changes in Education Cess, Anti-dumping duty, Safeguard duty? What is the changes in CVD and SAD after introduction of GST?

India GST Custom DutyNew Custom Duty on Gold
Prior to GST being implemented, the overall tax rate on gold jewellery stands at 12.2%. ( 10% customs duty, 1% excise duty, and 1.2% VAT)

GST replaces the excise duty and VAT components, but sits on top of the Import Duty. The Gold rate of 3% announced on 3rd June is significantly lower than many had feared. And, on the face of it, represents only a modest tax increase.

VAT varies state-by-state from 1% in Rajasthan to 5% in Kerala. Additional local taxes can push the overall tax on gold jewellery even higher


10 percent basic customs duty (BCD)
On the same day of Goods and Service Tax (GST) roll out across the country, the Government also imposed a 10 percent basic customs duty (BCD) on cellular mobile phones and specified parts of cell phones such as chargers, battery, wired headphones, microphones, keypad, USB cables, and receivers.

Also, the basic customs duty charges of 10 percent will also be applicable for certain other specified electronic goods, but the government did not disclose the items.




Impact of GST on imports in India
On the imports side there would be no major impact on levy of Basic Customs duty, Education Cess, Anti-dumping duty, Safeguard duty and the like. However, the Additional duties of Customs, which are in common parlance referred to as Countervailing Duty (CVD) and Special Additional duty
of Customs (SAD), would be replaced with the levy of Integrated Goods and Services Tax (IGST), barring a few exceptions. atJuly 13, 20171 comment: Email ThisBlogThis!Share to TwitterShare to FacebookShare to Pinterest March 8, 2017 How much Alcohol can you carry Duty Free to India ?What is the Indian Duty Free Allowance Entitlements for Alcohol ?You are allowed to carry 2 litres of Alcoholic Liquor or Wine.
