Transport companies and ULM pilots: 3 months to update licenses and records or fines up to 15,000 EUR

The Real Decree 182/2026 modifies transport regulations and ULM aviation rules, introducing new additional provisions and removing temporary clauses. Key articles on pilot licenses and ULM use are revised, and a three-month period is set for updating records and procedures. Fines for non-compliance may reach up to 15,000 EUR (art. 5.6 and final 4).

In 3 key points

  1. The temporary provision 3 of RD 765/2022 is abolished (art. 2)
  2. The operation conditions in Article 80 of RD 1211/1990 are amended (art. 2)
  3. Three-month deadline to update pilot and licence records (disposición final 2)

How it affects those involved

Operators must update pilot records and licensing systems within three months to maintain valid operations; regional authorities must review temporary records and apply new validation criteria.
