# Drone no-fly zones in Belgium

**canfly? does not carry Belgium's zone data.** Belgium's UAS geographical zones are published behind a login. This page states who publishes them, where to check them, and what applies under the EU drone rules regardless.

## Why it is not here
skeyes publishes Belgium's zones through Droneguide, and they can be exported - but only after creating a free account, so there is no open endpoint for us to read. Droneguide is free and is the official check for Belgian flights.

## Key facts
- Status: published behind a login
- Responsible authority: skeyes (Belgium)
- Official source: https://map.droneguide.be/
- Last verified by canfly?: 2026-07-11
- Legal basis: Regulation (EU) 2019/947, Article 15

## What still applies when flying in Belgium
The EU-wide rules apply in Belgium exactly as in the 16 states canfly? does cover - only the zone data is missing, not the law.

- Operator registration, done once in your country of residence, is valid EU/EEA-wide.
- The Open / Specific / Certified categories and the 120 m height limit apply unchanged.
- Class marking and remote-ID obligations follow the drone, not the country.
- Belgium's national geographical zones are legally binding whether or not a third-party map shows them. Check them against skeyes (Belgium).

## Frequently asked questions

### Can I fly a drone in Belgium?
Yes, under the EU-wide rules in Regulation (EU) 2019/947 - the same operator registration, remote-ID and open/specific/certified categories that apply across the EU and EEA - but you must stay clear of Belgium's UAS geographical zones. canfly? does not carry those zones, because Belgium publishes its drone zones through an application that requires an account, so there is no open dataset to read. Check them against skeyes (Belgium) before you fly. The official source is https://map.droneguide.be/.

### Where do I check drone no-fly zones in Belgium?
With skeyes (Belgium), which is the authority responsible for publishing Belgium's UAS geographical zones under Regulation (EU) 2019/947, Article 15. The official source is https://map.droneguide.be/. It is free to use.

### Why doesn't canfly? show Belgium's drone zones?
skeyes publishes Belgium's zones through Droneguide, and they can be exported - but only after creating a free account, so there is no open endpoint for us to read. Droneguide is free and is the official check for Belgian flights.

### Does Belgium publish machine-readable drone-zone data?
Yes - as of 2026-07-11, the data exists in machine-readable form, which is why Belgium is listed as blocked rather than missing on canfly?'s coverage matrix. What is missing is permission to reuse it, not the data itself. See https://canfly.io/coverage.
