FAQ

CCTV Installation Dubai — Frequently Asked Questions

Is CCTV installation mandatory for businesses in Dubai?

Yes. SIRA regulations require most commercial premises in Dubai — including hotels, warehouses, retail shops, gold and jewellery traders, and labour accommodation — to install compliant CCTV surveillance. Requirements vary by business category, which we confirm during the site survey.

How much does CCTV installation cost in Dubai?

Cost depends on the number of cameras, resolution, storage retention and site conditions. A small retail installation starts from a few thousand dirhams, while multi-site or high-camera-count projects are quoted after a free site survey and BOQ.

How long does SIRA approval take?

Typical projects receive SIRA drawing approval within 1–2 weeks. GIG prepares and submits drawings on your behalf and coordinates the final inspection after installation.

How long must CCTV footage be stored in Dubai?

SIRA requires a minimum of 31 days of continuous recording for most commercial categories. We size NVR storage accordingly and verify retention during every AMC visit.

Do you provide CCTV maintenance after installation?

Yes. We offer annual maintenance contracts covering preventive checks, camera cleaning, recording verification, firmware updates and priority callout across Dubai and the wider UAE.
