Can a Riyadh landlord require departure merely because the lease expires?
REGA’s guidance restricts a landlord’s refusal to renew within Riyadh’s urban boundaries. Listed grounds include unpaid rent, qualifying structural safety defects, and personal residential use by the landlord or a first-degree relative, with applicable conditions.

Legal context in Saudi Arabia

- Which current law, regulation, implementing decision and contractual terms govern the matter
- Which court, committee, regulator or administrative authority is competent and whether a pre-filing step is required
- Whether nationality, residency, sector, employment status, registration or the date of the event changes the analysis
If you have a hearing, detention, notice, appeal, limitation or filing date, state the exact date in your first message and seek immediate advice. Contacting CounselO does not suspend or extend a deadline.

Lease Termination - Rental - Commercial - Mall
Termination of Commercial Lease Due to Ejar Data Error
The case concerns a commercial lease documented on the “Ejar” platform with data inconsistent with reality: the property was registered as a single unit despite comprising eight units. That prevented the tenant from fully occupying and subletting the premises. CounselO reviewed the case and developed a strategy for a termination claim through the claimant’s representative while reserving financial rights. The matter concluded with termination through a binding judicial settlement, achieving the client's practical objective and preserving her financial claims.

Rent vs. Enjoyment in Commercial Leasing
CounselO assessed an appeal concerning commercial rent where inaccurate property data allegedly prevented the agreed use and subletting of units. The analysis linked the contract, Ejar correspondence and use records to the extent of the landlord’s performance. It concerned an asserted impediment to the agreed benefit, rather than a tenant simply choosing not to use premises that were available.
