Understanding the rules

What are CCTV regulations in RAK?

All security camera installations in Ras Al Khaimah must comply with the Hemaya technical and security specifications issued by the RAK Police. These RAK police camera standards cover equipment, placement, storage, and ongoing maintenance.

1

Hemaya compliance standard

Every CCTV system must meet the RAK Police Hemaya specifications for camera resolution, IP rating, frame rate and field of view.

2

Camera placement rules

Cameras must cover all entry and exit points, parking areas, cash counters and critical corridors as defined by RAK police camera placement rules.

3

Recording & storage requirements

Footage must be stored for a minimum period set by RAK police CCTV legal requirements, with tamper-proof recording and backup capabilities.

Approved equipment only

Only RAK police approved camera brands and models that meet Hemaya technical specifications may be used in compliant installations.

Design submission & permits

A professional CCTV design layout, schematic drawings and Bill of Quantities (BOQ) must be submitted to obtain a RAK police camera installation permit before work begins.
