CCTV cameras in Hong Kong: prices, privacy rules and what to ask

Updated 4 November 2026

An indoor Wi-Fi CCTV camera in Hong Kong costs about HK$190 to HK$390, while an 8MP 4K bullet camera costs about HK$2,900, according to sellers' websites, November 2026. A kit of four cameras with a recorder runs from about HK$980 to HK$2,550. The quickest way to get current prices for your site is to send a request on BlaBlaPrice.

Privacy rules to check

The Privacy Commissioner for Personal Data publishes guidance on the use of CCTV surveillance, and police guidance covers digital CCTV systems whose pictures may be used by the police. The guidance says cameras should not be placed where privacy is a concern, such as changing rooms, and that the system must be protected from unlawful access. Check the field of view with the installer before fixing a camera, especially if it looks onto a shared corridor or another household's door.

Season and weather ratings

Hong Kong's summer runs from June to August and its winter from December to February, so November sits between the two seasons. Outdoor models in the listings carry IP66 or IP67 ratings, so check the rating against the exact spot where the camera will be fixed. Ask the installer to test the views in daylight and at night before you leave.

What to write in your request

Tell the seller the site address, the number of cameras and the main purpose, such as entrance, parking or stock room. Add the rough distance to each viewing position and whether there is power and a network connection at each point. A seller will ask for these details before a first order anyway, so include them now. Also state the camera type (indoor, outdoor, Wi-Fi or wired), the resolution in pixels, whether you need local or cloud recording, and your budget.

Delivery and installation here

Ask whether the price includes a site visit and installation in Central, Kowloon, Sha Tin, Tsuen Wan or Tuen Mun, and whether cable length is quoted in metres. Ask the seller to name each part in the quote, so you can see exactly what a kit includes.
