What Is a Drone Delivery Certificate (Part 135)?

A drone delivery certificate is the FAA certification an operator holds under the Part 135 certification and exemption framework, which governs covered commercial drone carriage of property, including package delivery (14 CFR Part 135).

The certificate is not a one-time permission. An operator's authority remains subject to the applicable certification, exemptions, and operating conditions. Part 135 governs the carriage; the separate Part 108 proposal would govern routine beyond-visual-line-of-sight operations.

Pinpoint: 14 CFR Part 135. Related term: Drone Delivery Certificate (Part 135) (14 CFR Part 135).
