FAQ · Q138
Are there restrictions on photography?
Photography restrictions apply widely: do not photograph military, border or secured facilities, observe local signage and instructions, and check drone rules for the specific region before flying.
Yes — photography is restricted in many locations; avoid photographing military, border and other secured or guarded sites and always obey local signage and officials’ instructions. Drone operations often require separate permits and regional clearance, so check the latest local and aviation rules before flying. Tourist interest in a site does not imply general permission, and fines or equipment seizure may occur; when in doubt ask authorities or your host and review official guidance before taking photos or using a drone.
