The executive regulations of the Non-Saudi Real Estate Ownership Law were published in Umm Al-Qura on 3 July 2026, in 14 articles and a schedule classifying violations.
They require non-residents to obtain a digital ID, a bank account in the Kingdom and a linked mobile number, and oblige non-Saudi companies to register with the Ministry of Investment, disclose their direct and indirect owners, and report within 15 days any transfer of 5% or more of their ownership.
They also treat a non-Saudi spouse and children as one unit when owning a home until the marriage ends or a child turns 25, and set fines of up to SAR 10 million for providing incorrect information.
