Due to the rapid development of technology, the incorporation of drones in aviation, commerce, and civilian fields is becoming increasingly widespread. The management regulations for drones in various countries is also becoming more and more complete. In addition to setting standards according to the scope of use, flight altitude, speed, and other drone aspects. Import and export regulations have also been introduced, posing new requisites challenges for drone certifications for exports.

In the US market, exported drones need to be registered under the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA). Drone manufacturers also need to ensure that drones comply with the National Air System (NAS) requirements, such as including standard remote identification or remote ID broadcast module functionality.
Please note that remote identification broadcasts are not applicable to all registered drones, such as drones flying within the Visual Line of Sight (VLOS) of the Federal Aviation Administration's Identification Area (FRIA) in the United States, as well as ADS-B outs or drones used for aviation research, compliance with regulations, or official legal authorization.
