Saudi Arabia Regulation on Public Decency
Oct 11, 2019 • 1 min Read
The Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) released an advisory on 09 October reminding our Kababayans who will be travelling to Saudi Arabia of the new regulation governing pubic decency and behavior.
The new regulation identifies 19 offenses punishable by fines and designates the Saudi Police as the sole authority responsible for monitoring offenses and imposing fines. The regulation provides that the offenders have the right to submit a grievance claim before the Common Courtesy Department and to appeal any penalties. Any person harmed by the offenders shall have the right to file a lawsuit.
Our Kababayans are encouraged to familiarize with the Saudi decency law.
