π Rental Contracts & Payments
Residential rentals in Saudi Arabia are processed through Ejar - the official government rental platform
Once you agree with the landlord, they create the contract on Ejar, and you receive a notification on your registered mobile
You can then review and accept the contract electronically
Make your rental payment via your bank app (see below) and receive the keys!

Rent is commonly paid:
Annually (1 payment per year)
Semi-annually (2 payments)Β
Since a bulk payment is large, some employers offer the option to pay rent on your behalf and deduct it monthly from your salary package
