I lent a friend my Mavik for his trip to Uganda but it was impounded by customs upon entering the country.  Fortunately, he was able to recover it upon departure, but it made me wonder if there is any central resource where we can research drone restrictions by countries around the world so we can avoid this hassle before we travel.

Hello and good day. I am sorry to know about your friend's experience in bringing the your drone to Uganda. I will be posting an official DJI link where in you can check some locations for guide highlighting the drone laws and battery transportation policies of some countries ( https://www.dji.com/flyingtips?site=brandsite&from=nav ) and a link where in you can see if a certain area is free to fly your drone of if this area is a no fly zone ( https://www.dji.com/flysafe/geo-map ). I hope these can help you on your next travel. Thank you.
