- undergo a certification procedure for the operator, including application submission, documentation assessment, inspections, and ongoing monitoring;
- present documents confirming the performance of aviation works;

These new requirements will be mandatory for both citizens of the Kyrgyz Republic and foreign nationals planning to import drones into the country.
