If the Drone does not carry anything hidden in it, then you are free to bring it. I am not sure if there are laws on the usage of drones here, so my answer is only to my best knowledge, maybe someone will come throw in more light on this for you.

They won’t allow to bring in in from the airport, if caught, will be confiscated. However, I have known people who have got it through the causeway route !!

Legally bringing Drone needs special government permissions as some companies require it from official point of views.

Thanks for your reply.

Could you please tell me the gov permission system.
I have visited GACA website but dont found any doc or form to fill our permission request.

No idea, we have a third party inspection agency which uses drones for various inspection activities and have got the government clearances for using it.

I will try to find out info from them !!
