Saudi Arabia lifts restrictions

Saudi Arabia has lifted all restrictions on citizens of other Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) states engaging in economic activities and independent professions in the Kingdom.

This was aimed at accelerating the process of economic integration in coordination with the steps taken to establish the GCC Common Market. This decision was taken by a meeting of the Council of Ministers, chaired by King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz on Monday evening, and this was after reviewing the decision of the 28th Supreme Council of GCC leaders held in Doha last year.

The Cabinet also passed a series of regulations facilitating the transfer of jobs of people employed by maintenance, catering and cleaning companies outsourced by government departments.
