Official policy from the Lao Department of Civil Aviation establishes Salavan Airport as a restricted no-fly zone for civilian drones. Emergency medical transports depend on completely clear approach corridors surrounding the facility during rural rescue operations. Flying an unapproved drone inside this managed airspace directly violates national security and civil aviation statutes. Security personnel patrolling Salavan Airport maintain active surveillance to intercept unauthorized control signals in the area. Remote pilots who operate unapproved drones face immediate arrest, severe financial fines, and permanent confiscation of their flight gear. Exemptions are restricted strictly to state-approved mapping and defense operations holding advance written permits.
