Here’s Why the DJI Mavic 4 Pro is Not Available in the United States


The DJI Mavic 4 Pro is arguably the best—and perhaps most important—camera drone of all time. Featuring a new, ball-shaped 360° Infinity Gimbal at the front of the body, improved aerodynamics, and an upgraded triple-camera system capable of up to 6K60 HDR video, the Mavic 4 Pro is quite impressive on specs alone.

However, with a host of new and innovative features and controls, the Mavic 4 Pro isn’t just advanced, it’s also set to be quite sophisticated and fun to fly. Yet, for customers in the United States, that appears not to be an option.

As multiple outlets have reported, DJI has confirmed that the Mavic 4 Pro is not currently set to ship to the United States due to tariffs and other issues with US Customs that have been an ongoing battle for months.

To find out more about DJI’s decision to forgo a US launch, as well as speculation about what might eventually happen, let’s go over what we know so far.


DJI Mavic 4 Pro Not Available in USA


In what might end up being one of the biggest news stories of the year, the ongoing battle between the Chinese-based company DJI and the United States has been leading to this showdown. If you’ve been following the news of tariffs implemented by the Trump administration, you’ve probably been aware that disruptions and price changes have been on the way for some time.

However, as stated by DJI in statements made to The Verge, it sounds like DJI is out of the entire US market entirely until things change. The DJI Mavic 4 Pro is available in Canada and Mexico, as well as in all other countries where DJI currently sells drones, but DJI has stated that the company has no plans on bringing the Mavic 4 Pro to the US at this time.

DJI’s Statements on the Decision


According to DJI, in the same quotes to The Verge, the company isn’t set to make any changes to their plans despite the 90-day tariff pause announced last week.

“We’re currently reassessing the market conditions and developments and will share any updates once we have completed a full evaluation. Please rest assured that we are making every effort to protect the interests of our customers.” — an emailed statement from DJI spokesperson Daisy Kong made to The Verge.

In follow-up questions, DJI cites that “conditions of high uncertainty” have played a factor in this decision, which the company is sticking by despite already receiving approval from the FCC and TSCA certificate needed to launch the Mavic 4 Pro in US markets.

When and Where Can You Buy a Mavic 4 Pro


There’s been some conflicting information out there regarding when and where customers in the United States could possibly get their hands on a Mavic 4 Pro. However, in the same quotes, DJI does “not recommend purchasing DJI products abroad and bringing them back, as you may be subject to various import regulations. Our limited warranty for DJI drones is only valid in the country or region where you purchased your drone. International coverage is not offered for DJI drone products.”

The company concedes that the US is obviously an important market, though, and that they are committed to making their products available to US-based customers in the future, however, they do not have an estimated timeline for when that might be.
