Saudi Arabian regulatory updates

Overview

The Saudi Arabian government has introduced new regulatory frameworks across different sectors. In the sports sector, the Ministry of Sport announced regulations for the sale and resale of event tickets to protect fan rights and increase transparency. These rules restrict sales to accredited platforms, ban the use of automated software, and require tickets to be linked to buyer identities.

In the education sector, the Ministry of Education approved a framework for private educational institutions. The new rules prohibit schools from denying students access to services or academic results due to unpaid fees. Additionally, institutions must disclose tuition fees on a Ministry platform at least 180 days before the academic year begins and follow a specific two-stage licensing process.
