How do I report that my registered drone was stolen?

We recommend you notify your local law enforcement to make a police report. This would prevent any further action and will cover you in the event that the stolen drone happens to be used in illegal activity in the future. You should then de-register your UAS as follows:

  • Recreational flyers: If you registered your drone at FAADroneZone, log in to your account and you will see your registration number, right below it (in far left column) you will see the option to "Cancel".
  • Part 107 flyers: If you registered your drone at FAADroneZone, log in to your account and go to "Manage sUAS Inventory". Next, beside the drone you want to cancel are three small vertical dots, select those dots and there you will have the option to "Cancel".

Still can't find what you are looking for? Please feel free to contact the UAS Support Center for general questions and comments.
