How to Pass the EASA A2 Drone Exam in Czech Republic (2026)
The EASA open-category A2 certificate (Osvědčení o způsobilosti A2) is recognised across all 31 EASA member states, but the theoretical exam is organised nationally. In Czech Republic, your National Aviation Authority is Civil Aviation Authority (CAA CZ), which publishes booking rules, fees in EUR, and the list of authorised exam centres. Use Civil Aviation Authority (CAA CZ) guidance for booking, then prepare with topic-based practice and full timed simulations before your classroom session.
The open category A2 certificate is harmonised across EASA states. Your NAA (Civil Aviation Authority (CAA CZ)) administers the in-person exam; flights remain VLOS unless you hold specific-category authorisation.

Step-by-step process in Czech Republic
- Study theory. Complete A1/A3 first, then work through A2 syllabus topics on a2sts.eu with timed practice and full 30-question simulations.
- Register with Civil Aviation Authority (CAA CZ). Create an account on the national portal and book your Osvědčení o způsobilosti A2 session when you consistently score above the pass mark in practice.
- Take the exam at an authorised centre. Arrive with ID required by your NAA; the test follows the standard EASA multiple-choice format (Theoretical exam at the NAA (in-person classroom)).
- Receive your Remote Pilot Certificate. After passing, your certificate is issued nationally and recognised for A2 operations across EASA states.
What topics does the A2 exam cover?
The theoretical exam draws from eight EASA syllabus areas. Prepare each topic before attempting a full simulation:
- Air space, air traffic and airspace restrictions
- UAS regulations
- Human performance limitations
- Meteorology
- UAS flight performance
- Technical and operational mitigations for ground risk
- Technical and operational mitigations for air risk
- Insurance requirements
See our A2 exam overview for format details, or the STS exam page if you also need specific category operations.
How to prepare
Random question drills are not enough for A2: you need topic coverage, explanation review, and at least one full 30-minute simulation under exam conditions. A2STS mirrors the official 30-question layout and 75% pass threshold so you know when you are ready to book with Civil Aviation Authority (CAA CZ).
Frequently asked questions
- Is the EASA A2 exam the same in Czech Republic as in other EU countries?
- Yes. The syllabus and pass standard (30 questions, 75% pass mark, 23/30 correct) are harmonised under EASA. Civil Aviation Authority (CAA CZ) administers the session locally, but the certificate is valid throughout the EASA system once issued.
- How long is the A2 certificate valid in Czech Republic?
- The remote pilot certificate of competency is valid for 5 years across EASA states, including Czech Republic. Renewal follows your NAA process—often a shorter refresher exam before expiry.
- Can I take the A2 exam online in Czech Republic?
- No. Unlike A1/A3 (which many NAAs allow online), the A2 theoretical exam is taken in person at an authorised centre. Civil Aviation Authority (CAA CZ) lists approved locations and registration steps on its website.
