Who this affectsWhat the document saysWhat changes in practiceWhat it does not doDoes this affect the Part 107 exam?Who this affects
No one operationally. Only anyone who needed to reference the correct docket number when filing comments on the underlying information-collection renewal.
What the document says
On January 29, 2026 the FAA published a notice requesting comments on the renewed approval of the Small Unmanned Aircraft Registration System information collection. That notice listed the wrong docket number. It printed FAA-2025-18382; this February 9, 2026 notice corrects the docket number to FAA-2025-3156. That is the entire substance of the document.
What changes in practice
Nothing. Your registration process, registration fees, registration requirements, and operational rules are all unchanged. The underlying notice this corrects is a routine OMB paperwork-clearance renewal, not a rule change.
What it does not do
It does not change registration requirements, fees, or process. It does not create new obligations. It does not alter any operational rule. It does not introduce any new technology or reporting requirement. It is a single-line correction to a docket number citation.
Does this affect the Part 107 exam?
This clerical correction changes no operating or registration requirement and announces no change to Part 107 testing requirements.
