Are drones allowed in Greenland?

Yes, drones are allowed in Greenland, but private individuals must abide by the regulations set forth by the Danish Air Navigation Act, as described in legislation BL 9-4. These regulations outline specific rules regarding distances from public aerodromes and military airbases, built-up areas and major public roads, flight level, overflying densely built-up areas or areas with a large number of people gathered in the open air, and remaining within sight of the operator at all times. Additionally, three particularly sensitive natural resorts in Greenland, as referred to in BL 7-16, must not be overflown.
