Make sure you apply for the permits in the order that they are listed. For example, if your event is planned for a park, you will need to secure that venue before you apply for a Aeronautical Permit.
We will review your applications and contact you if we need additional information.
When prompted, you can pay the permit processing fees.
When your permit is approved, we will email it to you.
