What is ADMCC and why does your CCTV system need approval?
The Abu Dhabi Monitoring & Control Centre (ADMCC), operating under the Supreme Council for National Security, is the regulatory authority that sets mandatory standards for CCTV and security systems installed across Abu Dhabi. Commercial, government and semi-government premises that install a surveillance system in Abu Dhabi are typically required to use an ADMCC-approved installer and meet ADMCC's technical requirements, including camera resolution, recording retention, and connection to the centralised monitoring infrastructure. Abu Dhabi Police and the MCC also call on home owners to comply with the home-surveillance regulations and choose a licensed company. Confirm what applies to your premises with ADMCC. Emirtech Technology is an ADMCC-approved security integrator based in Mussafah, Abu Dhabi. We design every installation to meet the applicable ADMCC requirements; ADMCC makes the final approval decision. For every system Emirtech installs, see security systems in Abu Dhabi.

|---|---|
| What the approval covers | ADMCC approval for security systems installation. Systems are designed to align with ADMCC requirements, which we confirm for your premises at survey; ADMCC makes the final approval decision. |
| What it does not cover | Emirtech is not SIRA-approved. Dubai CCTV is SIRA-regulated, so we refer it to a SIRA-licensed contractor. Our Dubai work covers smart home, PABX and IP-PBX phone systems, IT AMC and time attendance by scheduled on-site visits, gate barriers, ANPR, video intercoms and turnstiles by Emirtech itself, and CCTV, alarm and access control through SIRA-approved partners, with Emirtech coordinating, through scheduled on-site visits. |

| Process | Site survey, system design, preparation of the ADMCC submission documents, installation, testing, then handover and registration. We confirm the approval timeline after the survey. |
| Checking approval | Emirtech's ADMCC approval details are available on request, and you can confirm them directly with the Monitoring and Control Centre. |
| Quotation | No fixed price list: cost depends on the cameras, site and cabling. A free site survey comes first, then a written quotation. We reply to enquiries the same working day. |

What is ADMCC? Understanding Abu Dhabi's CCTV Compliance Framework
ADMCC stands for the Abu Dhabi Monitoring & Control Centre (officially the Monitoring and Control Centre, MCC — see its official website), the body responsible for overseeing all security and surveillance systems installed within the emirate of Abu Dhabi. It operates under the Supreme Council for National Security and enforces technical standards that govern camera specifications, video retention periods, network connectivity, and integration with Abu Dhabi's centralised monitoring infrastructure.
Who Needs ADMCC Approval?
ADMCC requirements typically apply to a wide range of premises in Abu Dhabi, including:
- Commercial offices, retail outlets and shopping centres
- Hotels, hospitality venues and entertainment facilities
- Industrial sites, warehouses and logistics facilities
- Government and semi-government buildings
- Educational institutions and healthcare facilities
For homes, Abu Dhabi Police and the Monitoring and Control Centre ask residents to comply with the home-surveillance regulations and to choose a company licensed by the specialised authorities (Abu Dhabi Police guidance, November 2024). Operating a CCTV system that does not meet the applicable requirements can expose you to enforcement action or denied permits; confirm the current rules with ADMCC. Engaging an ADMCC-approved installer such as Emirtech Technology helps ensure your system is designed to the applicable ADMCC requirements from the outset; ADMCC makes the final approval decision.
Typical ADMCC Requirements Checklist
| Requirement | Specification |
|---|---|
| Minimum camera resolution | HD (1080p) or higher for new installations |
| Video retention period | Set by ADMCC for the premises category; confirmed at survey |
| Camera placement | All entry/exit points, car parks, common areas |
| Remote access | Connection to the centralised monitoring infrastructure where required |
| Network infrastructure | Recommended: dedicated, secure CCTV network or VLAN |
| Installer approval | Must be an ADMCC-approved contractor |
These are typical requirements, not an official specification. ADMCC updates its standards periodically, so confirm the exact requirements for your premises category with ADMCC before design.
