This document summarizes the key EU and Italian regulations related to remotely piloted aircraft systems (RPAS/drones). The main EU sources are the Basic Regulation establishing EASA and rules for civil aviation, the Data Protection Directive, Electronic Communications Services Directive, and a Commission Communication on opening aviation markets to drones. National regulations in Italy include provisions in the Italian Navigation Code and a 2015 ENAC regulation on private drone use. The liability of professional drone operators is governed by international conventions, while liability for recreational drones falls under Italian civil law.
