Commercial Drone Insurance is a type of insurance policy that is designed specifically to protect you and your Drone Business.
To obtain a Commercial Drone Insurance Policy the business is required to utilize only Part 107 Certified Pilots and be operating as a Drone Business in a commercial or money making fashion.
There are several different types of Commercial Drone Insurance policies available depending on your business needs. As a new startup drone business, especially when funds are limited, we recommend that you start with one of our pay-per-hour competitors like Verifly Drone Insurance.
Once you have established your drone business and you are looking for more comprehensive and serious insurance policy, we recommend that you switch to a full annual insurance policy with BWI.

Some of the best drone jobs will have multiple companies bidding, and most of them will have great websites, experience and good references. Having a full annual drone insurance policy backed by an A+ rated insurance company like Global Aerospace, gives you a leg up and increases your credibility.
These policies typically include the below coverages:
- Liability Insurance: This is typically offered in amounts from $500,000-$25,000,000. Every Commercial Drone Insurance Policy includes at least a minimum $500,000 Liability Coverage Limit. This covers Bodily Injury and Property Damage that is caused by the Unit.
Examples:
-
-
- Property Damage: Your drone crashes into a house or car.
- Bodily Injury: Your drone hits another person and causes bodily injury.
- Legal Defense: Someone sues you as a result of an incident while operating your drone.
-
- Optional Hull, Payload and Ground Equipment Coverage: Many Drone Businesses are investing in higher valued drones, cameras and have an abundant amount of ground equipment that they use for different purposes and shots. A Drone Commercial Policy gives you the option to cover the value of the equipment you are using in your business. i.e. Thermal Cameras, iPads, Controllers, etc.
-This Coverage typically runs at a 8-12% Hull Rate. For example, if you are looking for $10,000 in Hull Coverage, it would increase your premium by $1,000 (10%).
- Personal Injury and Advertising Liability Coverage: Protects you in the event that you are sued in connection with advertising your goods or services: Libel, slander, invasion of privacy, copyright infringement, etc.
