Thailand, from paradise above

Few places look better from the air. The colour of the water alone is worth the flight.

SkyHi travels to Thailand to create aerial photography, 4K video and FPV films for resorts, hotels, villas, yacht and boat charters, tourism brands and destination weddings. Our Ang Thong National Marine Park film shows what's possible, and we handle the drone registration and local rules before we fly.

Flying legally in Thailand

Thailand has its own drone laws, and they apply to visiting operators too. We sort the paperwork before we travel.

Drone registration

Camera drones must be registered with Thailand's aviation and telecoms authorities (CAAT and NBTC) before they fly. We register our equipment and carry the required insurance.

National parks & protected areas

Flying in national parks and marine parks, such as Ang Thong, needs permission from the park authorities. We apply in advance and follow the rules on the day.

Airports, crowds & privacy

How much does drone photography cost in Thailand?

Is it legal to fly a drone in Thailand?

Yes, when the rules are followed. Camera drones must be registered with Thailand's Civil Aviation Authority (CAAT) and the NBTC, and operators need insurance. Rules can change, so we check the current requirements and complete the registration before every trip.

Can you fly in Ang Thong and other national parks?

Flying in Thailand's national parks and marine parks needs permission from the park authorities. We apply in advance and follow any conditions on the day, as we did for our Ang Thong National Marine Park film.

Do you film resorts, hotels and villas in Thailand?

Yes. We create aerial photography, 4K video and FPV flythroughs for resorts, hotels and villas, made for your website, booking platforms, ads and social media.

Can you film our destination wedding in Thailand?

Yes. We capture beach and island weddings from the air, working with your venue, planner and photographer so the drone adds to the day without getting in the way.

Do you travel from the UK for drone shoots in Thailand?

Yes. SkyHi is based in Leeds in the UK and travels to Thailand for the right projects. We plan trips around your dates, and can often combine several shoots on one visit.

What do I receive after a drone shoot in Thailand?

You receive high-resolution aerial photographs and 4K drone video, ready to use on your website, booking platforms, social media or in print. We agree the exact deliverables and edits before the shoot.
