Dubai has taken another major step to reinforce its reputation as one of the safest cities in the world. Vice President and Prime Minister of the United Arab Emirates and Ruler of Dubai Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum has issued a new law aimed at enhancing public safety across the emirate, covering everything from events and buildings to beaches and public venues. The legislation, known as Law No. (2) of 2026, establishes a comprehensive framework designed to protect residents, visitors and property while supporting Dubai’s rapid urban growth.
The new law will come into effect on June 1, 2026 and will be published in the Official Gazette, marking one of the most significant safety reforms introduced in the emirate in recent years.
