Flying a drone in Finland

Finland applies the EU drone rules (Regulation (EU) 2019/947). In the open category you fly below 120 m above the ground, keep the drone in sight and away from people, and register as an operator with Traficom if your drone weighs 250 g or more or carries a camera. Traficom publishes Finland's UAS geographical zones as open data under CC BY 4.0. They cover airports, restricted and danger areas and other sensitive sites: some prohibit flight entirely, others allow it with permission from the airport or authority named in the zone.

How to read the map

Each zone is coloured by what the publisher says it means for a flight. Select one to see its altitude limits, schedule and the authority to contact.

  • Prohibited — The source states that flight is not permitted here.
  • Authorization required — Flight may be possible with prior authorization from the named authority.
  • Coordination required — The source states that no authorization is needed, but the operator must coordinate before flying.
  • Information only — The source classes this as advisory: a hazard or activity to be aware of, not a restriction on flight.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to register my drone in Finland?
Yes, if your drone weighs 250 g or more, or carries a camera (unless it is a toy): as an operator you register with Traficom and put your operator number on every drone you fly.
How high can I fly a drone in Finland?
In the open category, no higher than 120 m above the ground. A UAS geographical zone can set a lower limit, or prohibit flight altogether: select a zone on the map to see its limits.
Can I fly a drone near airports in Finland?
Airports sit inside UAS geographical zones that either prohibit flight or allow it only with permission from the airport or authority named in the zone. Select the zone on the map to see which applies and who to contact.
Is this map run by the authority, or an authorization to fly?
Neither. GeoPilot is an independent planning tool, not affiliated with or endorsed by the national publisher; it shows the zones that publisher releases, synced automatically. It is not an authorization, and the official source always wins: confirm there, and get any permission a zone requires, before you fly.
