You’ll be able to own businesses and properties without a sponsor. Residential, commercial, or industrial—take your pick, except in Makkah, Madinah, and border areas.
Premium residents can jet in and out freely, which means no need for exit and re-entry visas. Permit holders can also call their families here.
These permits cost $26,665 (SR100,000) for a one-year plan, or there is a lifetime one at $213,320 (SR800,000).
