The issuance date for White Land fee invoices in Riyadh has been announced.
The official account for the White Land and Vacant Property Fees system in Saudi Arabia announced that invoices for white land fees subject to the fee in the city of Riyadh will be issued on January 1, 2026.
The official account of the system on the “X” platform confirmed that when the fee is issued on their land, the taxpayer can submit a request for an additional development period. This additional period is granted after approval from the competent committee according to approved regulations.
The account clarified that if development is not completed during the additional period, the fees become due for the entire duration.
The Saudi Ministry of Municipalities and Housing announced in August last year the determination of geographic ranges for applying white land fees in Riyadh.
The ministry stated at the time that the geographic ranges for white lands in the capital were divided into 5 tiers, with varying fees imposed on each tier.
It added: “The ministry will apply annual fees at a rate of 10% on lands in the highest priority tier, 7.5% for high priority, 5% for medium priority, and 2.5% for low priority.”
The tier outside the priority range was exempted from fees, but it is counted within the total white lands owned by the taxpayer within the city limits.
