In 2016, theGovernment of India denied Google's request to cover India through Street View photography, citing concerns that military installations or other sensitive areas would be photographed.[16][17]
In 2022, after a change in government policy, Google was permitted to launch in India; its Street View project in the country is a partnership withGenesys andTech Mahindra.[18] It competes withMapmyIndia.[18] At launch in July 2022, Street View covered 150,000 km of roads in India; it also formed partnerships with traffic authorities inDelhi,Bengaluru,Hyderabad,Chandigarh,Ahmedabad,Kolkata,Gurgaon, andAgra.[18]

Google Street View covers most regencies and cities inSumatra (except most ofAceh),Java,Nusa Tenggara Islands,Borneo,Sulawesi, andNorth Maluku (includesTernate,Tidore, and parts ofHalmahera). There is currently no official coverage inMaluku (province) and thePapua region, if it exists, then all of them are unofficial. Before 2015, only Java,Madura, and Bali were covered by the Street View.
In October 2019,Google excluded and removed most of the Street View images ofAceh due to a controversial incident.[19] TheBanda Aceh City Government considered suing Google about why the inappropriate image can be easily passed and shown to public. Even so, the government still allows Street View recordings in certain places that are not in roadways. The City Government also reported this incident toMinistry of Communication and Information Technology.
Since then, only parts south ofSubulussalam; several meters away from border gate betweenSoutheast Aceh Regency andKaro Regency; parts east ofLhokseumawe; a very small (several meters long) fragment of Teuku Nyak Arief Road atBanda Aceh, a fragment of Blang Bintang Lama Road and a Chinese housing complex at Neuheun inAceh Besar Regency are currently covered in Aceh. In October 2025, Google added Street View coverage in Southeast Aceh Regency to Gayo Lues Regency.

As in other places, there has been controversy surrounding plans to bring Street View to various Asian countries.
InIsrael, there have been concerns that introducing the service could increase the risk of terrorism to which the region is prone.[25]
In India, the Government had rejected Google Street View until June 2022.This was due to privacy concerns. But in June 2022 the Indian Government allowed Street View in many cities of India including the capital cityNew Delhi. Now it is available inMumbai,Bangaluru,Chennai and many others. Security establishments became wary of allowing such image capturing given that planning for the 2008 terrorist attacks in Mumbai is believed to have involved photographic reconnaissance of targets by Pakistani American David Coleman Headley. The Indian Government had plans to talk about Google Street View in India, but in March 2018 Government of India finally rejected the Google Street view plan[26] citing that this will compromise the country's security. However, many users have uploaded an increasing amount of Street view in various parts of India, such as Bengaluru and Kerala, among many others. Finally in July 2022 Government of India allowed Google to launch Street View services across the country.
Google had to reshoot all images in Japan because the camera cars that took the original photographs were originally too high, leading toprivacy concerns. Japanese houses are generally built quite close to the road. Roads are also narrow, often without pavements. Such factors led to privacy concerns with the original photographs.[27]
Police inSouth Korea raided Google offices in that country in order to determine whether Street View was legal.[28]
In 2013, people in Tambon Sa-iap village,Song district in Phrae province,Thailand, mistakenly believed that the Street View car was surveying the village for theunwantedKaeng Suea Ten Dam project and blocked it, not allowing it to take photographs. They also arrested the driver and interrogated him to determine if he was working for the dam project. He was released after swearing on theBuddha that his work was not related to the dam project. After confirming his story, the village's leaders apologized for the misunderstanding.[29][30]
InIndonesia, Google was forced by theBanda Aceh City Government to remove almost every Street View image of Aceh in 2019, leaving exceptions toLangsa,Aceh Tamiang,Southeast Aceh,Aceh Singkil, andSubulussalam City (as well as Street View recordings of certain places that are not in roadways). This incident was caused by some foreigners that were uploading inappropriate images, some of which contain two naked foreigners. One of them wrote the sentence"Protest sharia law."[31] on his hand. The city government discovered this and considered suing Google, as well as asking it why the inappropriate images could be so easily shown to the public.[19] The City Government also reported this incident toMinistry of Communication and Information Technology. With this incident, the government continues to use this as the main reason for defending the Law of Information and Electronic Transactions Act.
