Riyadh: Saudi citizens can now rent out their residential units to Hajj pilgrims, according to local media.

The Pilgrims’ Housing Committee in Mecca announced that it has begun accepting citizen requests to rent out Saudis residential units.

The committee urged owners of residential units who want to rent them out to contact designated engineering offices in order to complete the necessary permit procedures.

The mayoralty of Mecca has stated that it will continue to accept applications. The mayoralty and Civil Defence-accredited engineering consulting firms will inspect the housing units to ensure they meet the regulations and issue a ‘fitness certificate.’ The Pilgrims’ Housing Committee will issue permits for the units based on this.

The committee encouraged citizens to contact it for information on permit requirements and for building owners to meet all necessary safety and security requirements under construction regulations.

Saudi Arabia issued a bylaw this month allowing its citizens to rent out their housing units to tourists in order to boost the private hospitality industry.
