Scheduling sequence
- Create or recover your IACRA account and record the FTN.
- Open the FAA testing vendor portal linked from FAA testing resources.
- Select the correct exam code: UAG — Unmanned Aircraft General – Small.
- Choose a testing center, date, and available time.
- Review the current fee and refund/reschedule policy before payment.
- Confirm that your name matches your acceptable identification.
Do not accidentally schedule a recurrent course or a recreational test. A first-time non-Part-61 applicant normally needs UAG.
What to confirm with the center
- Arrival time and check-in process.
- Acceptable primary and supplemental identification for your circumstances.
- Permitted test aids and calculator policy.
- Reschedule, cancellation, and late-arrival rules.
- Accessibility accommodations and how early they must be requested.
The current fee is commonly around $175, but testing centers and policy can change. Treat the vendor checkout page as the current source of truth before paying.
