Part 107

Part 107 is a set of regulations established by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) governing the commercial use of small drones (unmanned aircraft under 55 pounds) in the United States. It requires drone pilots to pass a knowledge test to obtain a Remote Pilot Certificate, adhere to safety rules like flying below 400 feet, maintain visual line of sight, and avoid restricted areas. These rules ensure drones are operated responsibly, safely, and in a way that minimizes risks to people and property, enabling businesses and individuals to use drones legally for activities such as photography, inspections, and delivery.
