Hi all,

just got a spark and planning on bringing it into China.

Has anyone brought in a drone from overseas into China? Mainly concerned if customs will be a problem, theres a few posts floating around the web claiming their drone was confiscated, I'm assuming they're the exception rather than the norm.

Iv'e registered it already with the CAAC so hopefully everything will go smoothly...

Hi, we would recommend coordinating this matter to the designated department in China who handle drones to check the rules and regulation. You may also check our geo-zone map to see the restricted area in China. We're sure that our valued DJI Forum members would provide the recommendations that you may need for bringing your drone. Thank you for your support.

Just reporting back that there were no issues entering via Guangzhou Baiyun International Airport, they are picky about lithium battery packs though when boarding aircraft's and they do want your spare batteries separated from your bags and into the trays along with any power banks you carry.
