Photography

 

Taking photos and videos for personal, non-commercial purposes is allowed without a permit, and free of charge in public places using any type of camera. This includes photography at archaeological sites and museums but without the use of flash photography indoors.

Photography without a permit is prohibited in institutions such as ministries, legislative councils, government facilities, police stations, buildings and sites belonging to the Armed Forces, and other sovereign and security authorities.

If you are using the following types of equipment, you will need to obtain a special permit:

• Shooting equipment, such as professional photography umbrellas
• Outdoor artificial lighting gear
• equipment that occupies or blocks public roads
For more information regarding commercial photography and videography at archaeological sites and museums, please contact the Cultural Relations Department at the Ministry of Tourism.

To ensure smooth entry, please make sure you declare your professional camera equipment and drones at the airport, as the use of this type of equipment requires special permits issued by the government.
