Increasing investment in new technologies and an increase in smuggling drive the market.
The border security market in the UAE is booming due to its strategic position as a global transit hub and the perception of threat across the region. Technologies advanced, such as AI-driven monitoring, biometric systems, and surveillance solutions, are being used to avoid unauthorized entries, smuggling, and potential security breaches. The UAE will, therefore, strengthen border measures to ensure the safety of goods and people while addressing challenges posed by geopolitical instability and evolving security risks as it becomes a major global logistics and trade center.
The UAE has recently established a new border security body on November 2023, in line with its Vision 2030, to strengthen its national security infrastructure. This will enhance border control and make customs procedures efficient in the light of rising security challenges. The new body will be fitted with all the latest technologies such as biometrics, AI, and data analytics, making the operations run more efficiently and effectively, and ultimately improve border management in general. In November 2024 the country adopted new facial recognition systems across its border aimed at reducing wait time as well as increase security, For instance the Abu Dhabi airport uses face recognition software compares a person's facial traits to databases containing information about their identity to guarantee that only authorised individuals can enter or exit the country.
In recent times the UAE has also increased its border security measures in light of the growing drug trafficking menace due to the UAE’s strategic location as a major global trade centre. Air, sea and land borders of the UAE are protected from illegal activities through the use of state of the art drones, biometric systems and high definition cameras. The Dubai border security officers have recently prevented about 2,600 attempts of drug smuggling in the three years from 2020 to 2022 through the use of advanced scanning technologies.
