To install surveillance cameras, the mission must make sure that any camera surveillance is compliant with the General Data Protection Regulation - external website, (GDPR). The physical installation of surveillance equipment may require a building permit or permission from the property owner.

For detailed information regarding the provisions in the GDPR as regards camera surveillance, please contact the Swedish Authority for Privacy Protection, which is the responsible authority for these matters.
