Official policy from the National Civil Aviation Institute establishes Cabinda Airport as a restricted no-fly zone for civilian drones. Offshore logistics helicopters and emergency medical transports depend on completely clear approach corridors surrounding the facility.

Exemptions are restricted strictly to state-approved industrial and defense operations holding advance written permits.
