Saudi Arabia’s Ministry of Labour and Social Development (MLSD) listed 12 professions on Monday as off-limits to foreigners.
Beginning 11 September, a range of sales jobs in the automotive, garments, home furniture and kitchenware industries will be nationalised.
The MLSD “issued a decision to restrict work in 12 activities and occupations to Saudi men and women … to enable their employment in the private sector,” wrote Khaled Abalkhail, a ministry spokesman, in a public statement.
Oman made a similar announcement this week, temporarily barring new residency visas for expats in 87 job roles, reported Arab News.
