Photography and Privacy Boundaries
The article answers the question of when photography in public places becomes legally illegal in Syria. It explains that Syrian law protects personal freedom and privacy, and that photographing a person without their permission is considered a crime under the Cybercrime Law No. 20 of 2022, which sanctions the capturing and sharing of images or recordings without consent—even if the photography takes place in a public space. It is required that the photography be directed at a specific individual and used in a way that harms their dignity or breaches modesty, with the consent of the person being photographed. Penalties include imprisonment from one month to two years, fines of up to one million Syrian pounds, and the punishment is doubled if the photography aims to harm or involves public dissemination that causes harm. The law also provides for criminal and civil responsibility for the affected party.
