The Dubai Police Force (Arabic: شرطة دبي), commonly referred to as Dubai Police, is the police force of the Emirate of Dubai, United Arab Emirates. The Dubai Police Force has 30,000 employees[1][2] who are responsible for policing an area of 4,114 square kilometres and a population of over 3 million people.[3] They come under the jurisdiction of the Ruler of Dubai.[4]
The force is currently led by Abdullah Khalifa Al Marri, whose formal title is the Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police; he succeeded Khamis Mattar Al Mezaina in the year 2017.[5][6]
Dhahi Khalfan Tamim served as the Commander-in-Chief of Dubai Police until his new (and current role) in 2013 as the Deputy Chief of Police and General Security.[7]
One of the main reasons for the low crime rate in Dubai is the strict law enforcement policies. The Dubai Police Department has a reputation for being one of the most efficient and well-equipped police force in the world.[8][9]
Dubai Police recorded an average emergency response time of 2 minutes and 24 seconds in the third quarter of 2023.[10]
