The General Civil Aviation Authority has granted the UAE’s first certificate for operating
drones within designated airspaces to Dubai Air Navigation Services (dans).
The U-Space Service Provider (USSP) certification is handed to firms to manage operations in
specific airspaces through a suite of advanced, digitalised services designed to ensure safety,
security and efficiency.
The certification allows dans, in collaboration with Dubai Aviation Engineering Projects and ANRA
Technologies, to develop a platform to manage Unmanned Aircraft System (UAS) traffic in the
airspace.

It will allow immediate flight approvals, integrates radar, weather, and aeronautical notifications,
enhances conflict detection and avoidance, and will support future urban air mobility applications.
