China bans drone sales and UAV entry in Beijing

Retailers must stop Beijing drone sales from April 30

Change
China banned drone sales in Beijing and barred UAVs and core components from entering the capital.
Why it matters
Drone users must obtain permission for every Beijing flight. Retailers and logistics operators must stop sales and inbound movement under the new security rules.
Implications
  • Drone retailers in Beijing must halt sales from April 30, 2026 — continued sales breach the ban.
  • Drone operators must obtain permission before each Beijing flight — unapproved flights violate the new rule.
  • Logistics teams must block UAV and component shipments into Beijing — inbound entry is prohibited.
