If you want to know more about Flying a drone then the following section gives a clear overview of the drone registration rules in the UK, EU, and US. It explains what pilots are required to show, how the ID systems work, and why carrying an ID card can make things easier when you're flying, working, or travelling.

Drone ID Cards and International Rules: What Drone Pilots Need to Know

Flying drones has grown from a hobby into a serious part of many industries. Whether it's photography, farming, surveying, or inspections, drones are now an everyday tool. But with that comes responsibility. Different countries have introduced drone regulations, and keeping up with them can be a challenge. That’s where our cards come in. At The Card Project UK, we make Drone ID Cards for the UK, EU, and US to match what’s needed in each country.

Drone ID Cards for the UK: Understanding the CAA Rules

If you're flying in the UK, you’ll know the Civil Aviation Authority (CAA) requires most drone users to be registered. There are two types of IDs: the Flyer ID and the Operator ID. The Flyer ID is linked to the person flying the drone. The Operator ID belongs to the person or organisation responsible for managing it.

Most drones over 250g need both types of ID. Some under that weight also need registration if they have a camera. Once you've completed your CAA registration and passed the online theory test, you're issued with these ID numbers.

Our cards make this simple. They clearly show both the Flyer ID and Operator ID on one plastic card that’s the same size as a credit card. Our cards are easy to carry and keep everything in one place. That means if you’re asked to show your registration details, you're not scrolling through emails or digging out paperwork.

EU Drone ID Cards: What Pilots Need to Show Across Europe

Drone operators flying in the EU are under the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (EASA). If you're flying anything with a camera or anything above 250g, you must register as an operator. Once registered, you're given an EASA identification number. This number must be displayed on all your drones and used when applying for any permissions.

There are different risk categories: Open, Specific, and Certified. Most hobby and light commercial drone users fall under the Open or Specific categories, which still require proper registration and operator identification.

Our EU Drone ID Cards are designed to show your EASA registration number clearly. They’re ideal for pilots travelling between EU countries, especially if you’re working in multiple locations. Our cards give you one place to keep your details visible and accessible without relying on your phone or printed documents.

FAA Drone ID Cards for the US: Keeping Compliant with Federal Law

In the United States, drone use is governed by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). All drones that weigh more than 0.55 lbs (250g) must be registered. Even lighter drones need registration if they’re used for commercial purposes. Pilots receive a unique FAA registration number that must be labelled on the drone.

Recreational flyers must take The Recreational UAS Safety Test (TRUST), and commercial users must be Part 107 certified. There are also rules about airspace, flying over people, and line-of-sight requirements.

Our FAA Drone ID Cards show the FAA registration number along with your name and photo. They’re useful if you're approached by law enforcement, landowners, or site managers. Instead of searching for documents or apps, you can show our card to confirm you’re registered and flying legally.

Why Drone ID Cards Help Make Flying Easier

Whether you're flying drones for fun or work, keeping your paperwork organised makes a difference. Regulations can change, and not every situation allows time to search for an email or open a government website. Our cards give drone pilots a simple, reliable way to prove they're following the rules.

If you’re stopped mid-flight or asked for ID before a commercial job, having our card ready helps the process go more smoothly. It can also give clients or the public peace of mind. It shows you’re prepared and following the correct process for your country.

Our cards are made for the person flying the drone, not the drone itself. They’re not meant to label your equipment or help with recovery, but they do give you a simple way to show your registration details if someone asks while you're flying. That’s useful in situations where you’re approached by landowners, security, or members of the public.

A Practical Tool for Professional Pilots and Serious Hobbyists

Drones are more than toys. They’re often used on job sites, in agriculture, in land surveying, and in events. Pilots need to keep their documentation in order, especially when working across different countries or with different clients.

Our cards are built with that in mind. They’re made from biodegradable plastic, credit card-sized, and designed to last. They can include a photo for ID purposes, your registration number, and other useful details depending on the country. We keep the layout clear and professional, so you always have what you need in your wallet or drone kit.

If you’re part of a larger drone operation, our cards can help your whole team stay consistent. Everyone can carry proof of registration that’s easy to read and quick to show. That helps with safety checks, client onboarding, and access to restricted flying areas.

Drone ID Cards and Changing Regulations: Staying Up to Date

Drone regulations don’t stay still. In all three regions—UK, EU, and US—rules are being updated regularly as drones become more common. You might need to renew your registration, update insurance, or take new safety courses.

Our cards are made to order, so if your registration details change or expire, you can place a new order with the updated information. We don’t update existing cards, but we make it easy to reorder and keep everything current.
