Saudi Arabia has launched a digital platform to process municipal violation objections.
The Ministry of Municipalities and Housing announced that all objections related to municipal violations, fines, and procedures can now be submitted and processed electronically through the Unified Objections Platform.
Applications will be reviewed within a maximum period of 15 days from the date of submission.
In a press statement issued Monday, the Saudi Arabia ministry asserted that the new digital service eliminates the need for in-person visits to municipal offices, thus streamlining procedures and enhancing user experience.
The initiative aligns with the ministry’s ongoing commitment to fairness, transparency, and swift resolution of public complaints.

Objections can be submitted via the “Balady” platform or its mobile application, where users can also track the real-time status of their submissions at balady.gov.sa.
The platform is open to citizens, residents (including both property owners and tenants), as well as commercial entities, real estate developers, and others impacted by municipal penalties.
The Saudi Arabia ministry also confirmed that the system is based on unified procedures agreed upon by relevant regulatory bodies.
It forms part of a broader strategy to standardize oversight measures, improve legislative frameworks, and promote digital governance.
