These schools train drone pilots in Bahrain, from first flights to commercial work. Programs, schedules, and pricing change often, so contact each school directly for current details.
Registration for a drone requires proof of identity and falls into three fee tiers by weight class, each valid 3 years. The regulation reserves the right to require competency certification, but no exam curriculum has been published, and no personal pilot license or exam process is currently operative given the nationwide suspension.
Civil drone operation in Bahrain is regulated by the Civil Aviation Affairs authority under Ministry of Transportation and Telecommunications Regulation CAR006, covering three registration classes by weight. As of March 2026, all drone activity in Bahrain has been suspended nationwide until further notice.
