Abstract: Operators of foreign-registered civil unmanned aircraft, as needed (prior to operating in the airspace of the United States), are required to submit information to this collection. The FAA uses information provided by operators of foreign-registered civil unmanned aircraft operating in the airspace of the United States to identify those operators and the unmanned aircraft that they are operating. The FAA collects information through the online Notice of Identification service that is part of the FAADroneZone web site. The filing of the notice of identification and the issuance of a confirmation of identification does not have the effect of U.S. aircraft registration.
