use of Satellite phone in Saudi Arabia

MConrads

Hello Expat Community ,

In a couple of weeks I'm going to move to KSA to work and live there with my family.
To communication I'd like to take my Iridium Satellite Phone with me. I was wondering If this is legal. Are there any expats using satellite phone e.g. iridium? Can you share with me your experience? Are there maybe any forms I need to fill out?

Thanks for your support.

You might want to check about it through CITC. Their website is www.citc.gov.sa. Drop them a line about it.

Hello MConrads,

Kindly go through the following link:

Could give you some background, this was in 2011, I do not know how much it has changed since.

Thanks.
