FAA Drone registration - Needed twice?

[TomCruise06]

I just got this question in mind.

I registered in FAA site by paying $5.00 for flying my drone as a hobbyist.

I am right now prepping for part 107. So once I pass the certification, do I have to register again in FAA to register my drone with serial number and paying $5.00 again?

Sorry for a noob question or if this was already answered somewhere.

Yes - your original registration was good for any drone that you fly recreationally, but to fly under Part 107 you have to register each aircraft separately. Same website, different button.
