Saudi Arabia permanent residence: security and reach.
How far this permit travels, the days it costs to keep, and where it leads — years to permanent residency and citizenship. The whole deal, with official sources.
How secure it is
“Days to keep” — the physical-presence rule that keeps the status alive — is the column no other index publishes. It’s also exactly what Countly counts.
Not specified/no limit found for the permanent (SAR 800,000 one-time) tier
Revocable for serious crime, fraud in the application, or national-security grounds; the cheaper renewable tier (SAR 100,000/year)…
staying past 183 days typically makes you a tax resident — a different count, also worth tracking.
This status does not add visa-free access beyond the passport itself — its value is in rights, path and security.
