Beijing tightens drone crackdown, bans possession, storage across city from Nov 15

 As of November 15, Beijing will officially prohibit residents and businesses from owning drones. Existing drone owners must either sell their devices or dispose of them before the deadline. Infringers will face potential confiscation of their drones along with hefty fines. This regulation enhances security measures, significantly restricting drone operations within the city, following previous limitations on unauthorized flights and the classification of all airspace as restricted. As of November 15, Beijing will officially prohibit residents and businesses from owning drones.
