Drone / airspace
Regulated by the DGCA; drones over 2kg or beyond hobby use need permits, with restrictions near airports and heritage sites
For category detail, see Drone Authority.
Street / public space
Yes to photograph in public, but publishing an identifiable person's image without consent can breach the 2022 Personal Data Protection Law
Get consent before commercial publication.
Freedom of panorama
Restricted (no freedom of panorama)
Copyright Law No. 28 of 2014 lists no panorama exception, so you generally cannot sell images of copyrighted modern buildings or public art. Copyright runs life plus 70 years; older monuments are public domain.
Practical notes
- Borobudur and Prambanan restrict tripods and commercial gear and charge for shoots; arrange a permit in advance.
- Selling a print of a modern Jakarta tower or public sculpture can infringe, with no panorama defense.
