Saudi Arabia has announced a royal decree granting citizenship to a diverse group of professionals including scientists, medical doctors, researchers, innovators, entrepreneurs, and other talented individuals, as reported by the Saudi Press Agency (SPA).
“The announcement is made in line with the issued Royal decree to grant Saudi citizenships to experts and exceptional global talents with unique competencies in religious, medical, scientific, cultural, sports, and technological fields, contributing to the development of various sectors throughout the Kingdom, and in support of achieving its Vision 2030 goal, of creating an attractive environment that enables attracting, investing in and retaining exceptional creative minds,” SPA reported on Friday.
The decree emphasizes the Kingdom’s commitment to enhancing development across economic, health, cultural, sports, and innovation sectors by leveraging global expertise.
In December 2021, a similar initiative was approved, further solidifying Saudi Arabia’s dedication to bolstering its sectors through the integration of distinguished professionals.
The granting of citizenship underscores Saudi Vision 2030’s goal of cultivating an environment that not only attracts but also retains top-tier talent.
