What is a Remote Operator Certificate?

As an organisation wanting to operate commercial drones, you will require a Remote Operator Certificate (ReOC). This requirement can be likened to an airline such as QANTAS. QANTAS as a company has an Air Operator’s Certificate and each pilot has their own pilot’s licence relevant to the aircraft operated. Having a Remote Operator Certificate (ReOC) allows the company to operate commercial drones anywhere in Australia with the individual holding a Remote Pilot Licence (RePL).

Applying for a Remote Operator Certificate?

To obtain a Remote Operators Certificate (ReOC), your organisation will need:

Step 1Submit the application for the Remote Operator Certificate (ReOC).

You can choose to submit an application directly to the Civil Aviation Safety Authority (CASA) or through a CASA delegate. A delegate can usually complete the process in a number of weeks, whereas CASA would usually take a number of months. Please note a CASA delegate can only process an initial application within the standard operating conditions.

Step 2 – Complete a Job Safety Assessment/Risk Assessment. 

The CASA delegate will issue the nominated Chief Remote Pilot with a job scenario similar to that which the organisation would undertake. The nominated Chief Remote Pilot will be given a few days to prepare a Flight Authorisation, Job Safety Assessment and Risk Assessment.

Step 3Complete a telephone interview

The nominated Chief Remote Pilot (CrP) will conduct an interview with the CASA delegate. The interview will run for a couple of hours and cover questions about:

  • Roles and responsibilities of the CrP
  • ReOC operations
  • Air law
  • Specific questions about the scenario response
