How to Pass the EASA A2 Drone Exam in Slovenia (2026)

The EASA open-category A2 certificate (Potrdilo o usposobljenosti A2) is recognised across all 31 EASA member states, but the theoretical exam is organised nationally. In Slovenia, your National Aviation Authority is Civil Aviation Agency of Slovenia, which publishes booking rules, fees in EUR, and the list of authorised exam centres. Use Civil Aviation Agency of Slovenia 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 Agency of Slovenia) administers the in-person exam; flights remain VLOS unless you hold specific-category authorisation.

Step-by-step process in Slovenia

  1. Study theory. Complete A1/A3 first, then work through A2 syllabus topics on a2sts.eu with timed practice and full 30-question simulations.
  2. Register with Civil Aviation Agency of Slovenia. Create an account on the national portal and book your Potrdilo o usposobljenosti A2 session when you consistently score above the pass mark in practice.
  3. 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)).
  4. 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 Agency of Slovenia.

Frequently asked questions

Is the EASA A2 exam the same in Slovenia 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 Agency of Slovenia administers the session locally, but the certificate is valid throughout the EASA system once issued.
How long is the A2 certificate valid in Slovenia?
The remote pilot certificate of competency is valid for 5 years across EASA states, including Slovenia. Renewal follows your NAA process—often a shorter refresher exam before expiry.
Can I take the A2 exam online in Slovenia?
No. Unlike A1/A3 (which many NAAs allow online), the A2 theoretical exam is taken in person at an authorised centre. Civil Aviation Agency of Slovenia lists approved locations and registration steps on its website.
