First, you should check whether your existing insurance already covers the drone. This is the case with some hunting liability insurance policies. In any case, you should then provide your insurance company with the serial number of the new drone.   <\/p><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-ff18b74\" data-block-id=\"ff18b74\"><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">If you do not have insurance, you should take out appropriate insurance now. Make sure that the type of operation, i.e. who flies the drone, how many drones are in the air at the same time and, importantly, whether the type of operation, e.g. fawn rescue, is covered. As a rule, the cost is around \u20ac150 to \u20ac200 per year for a single insurance policy for applications such as wildlife rescue. Significantly cheaper insurance policies often do not cover such applications.   <\/p><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-icon-list stk-block-icon-list stk-block stk-8a5471e\" data-block-id=\"8a5471e\"><style>.stk-8a5471e .stk-block-icon-list-item__content{align-items:flex-start !important;}.stk-8a5471e ul .stk-block-icon-list-item__content .stk--inner-svg, .stk-8a5471e ol .stk-block-icon-list-item__content .stk-block-icon-list-item__marker{transform:translateY(6px) !important;}<\/style><svg style=\"display:none\"><defs><g id=\"stk-icon-list__icon-svg-def-8a5471e\"><svg xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" viewBox=\"0 0 190 190\"><polygon points=\"173.8,28.4 60.4,141.8 15.7,97.2 5.1,107.8 60.4,163 184.4,39 173.8,28.4\"\/><\/svg><\/g><\/defs><\/svg><ul class=\"stk-block-icon-list__ul stk-block-icon-list--column\">\n<li class=\"wp-block-stackable-icon-list-item stk-block-icon-list-item stk-block stk-c38f739\" data-block-id=\"c38f739\"><div class=\"stk-block-icon-list-item__content\"><span class=\"stk--svg-wrapper\"><div class=\"stk--inner-svg\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\"><use xlink:href=\"#stk-icon-list__icon-svg-def-8a5471e\"\/><\/svg><\/div><\/span><span class=\"stk-block-icon-list-item__text\">Ensure that you have coverage of at least \u20ac1 million and that the new drone is explicitly included in the insurance policy.<\/span><\/div><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-stackable-icon-list-item stk-block-icon-list-item stk-block stk-7db7cdf\" data-block-id=\"7db7cdf\"><div class=\"stk-block-icon-list-item__content\"><span class=\"stk--svg-wrapper\"><div class=\"stk--inner-svg\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\"><use xlink:href=\"#stk-icon-list__icon-svg-def-8a5471e\"\/><\/svg><\/div><\/span><span class=\"stk-block-icon-list-item__text\"> You should provide your insurance company with the serial number of the new drone.<\/span><\/div><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li class=\"wp-block-stackable-icon-list-item stk-block-icon-list-item stk-block stk-42d2ba4\" data-block-id=\"42d2ba4\"><div class=\"stk-block-icon-list-item__content\"><span class=\"stk--svg-wrapper\"><div class=\"stk--inner-svg\"><svg aria-hidden=\"true\" width=\"32\" height=\"32\"><use xlink:href=\"#stk-icon-list__icon-svg-def-8a5471e\"\/><\/svg><\/div><\/span><span class=\"stk-block-icon-list-item__text\">The insurance number is required for operator registration.<\/span><\/div><\/li>\n<\/ul><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-heading stk-block-heading stk-block-heading--v2 stk-block stk-ff45904\" id=\"registrierung-und-betreiber-id-e-id-beantragen\" data-block-id=\"ff45904\"><h3 class=\"stk-block-heading__text\">Apply for registration and operator ID (e-ID)<\/h3><\/div>\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-stackable-text stk-block-text stk-block stk-f13bccf\" data-block-id=\"f13bccf\"><p class=\"stk-block-text__text\">In the EU, every drone weighing 250 g or more (or equipped with a camera) must be registered.
