Regulator DGCA simplifies process for heliport license approval

The Directorate General of Civil Aviation (DGCA) has simplified the process for the grant of heliport license. The applications for NOC/Clearance to five external organizations that include the Ministry of Home and other ministers can be now routed through a single tab on the relevant portal.

DGCA grants heliport licenses to the heliports at the surface level as well as at elevated or rooftops of the buildings in compliance with aircraft rules.

Applicants desirous of obtaining a license or authorization are required to submit an online application to DGCA through the eGCA portal.
