DJI drones escape US ban for now, but clouds continue to loom for 2025



  • Drone maker DJI has escaped a US import ban for now
  • The company has a year to prove its security or be automatically banned
  • DJI protests that Chinese firms are being unfairly singled out

DJI is the world’s largest drone maker, and its products are so good that they occupy seven of the top 10 spots on our list of the best drones money can buy. But that hasn’t stopped it from facing increased scrutiny in the US, and while the company has just narrowly escaped being banned altogether in the United States, things could look very different in a year’s time.

So, what’s happened? Well, the US Senate has just passed the National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which allocates defense spending for the year. To DJI’s relief, it did not contain any provisions from the Countering CCP Drones Act, which sought to essentially block imports of all DJI products into the United States.
