Saudi ArabiaInvestment

Explore the five recorded questions, answers and sources for this pathway.

Official link

What investment option or options qualify?

Purchase of a unit from a real-estate developer approved by the Real Estate General Authority, without real-estate financing and without mortgaging the unit.

See recorded sources

What official minimum amount, tier or threshold applies to each relevant option?

For an off-plan residential unit, the captured official product page requires a purchase price of at least SAR 4 million and payment of at least SAR 1 million or 10% of the property value, whichever is higher. The government fee is separate; the page’s fee line does not establish a reliable amount. The off-plan purchase must not be financed through a real-estate loan and the unit may not be mortgaged.

Limits of the record
  • Government fee unresolved in the captured product page: the line reads '4,000 الاف ريـال سعودي', whose numeral and unit conflict. Do not interpret it as SAR 4,000 or SAR 4 million without a separately captured authoritative fee table.

How long must the investment be maintained and what continuing ownership, investment or physical-presence conditions are important?

The residence duration is tied to keeping the purchase contract and to transfer of ownership of the residential unit within a maximum of 5 years from the purchase date. The official source does not state physical-presence obligations.
