Saudi Arabia to Enforce National Address Requirement for Parcel Deliveries Starting January 2026

The Transport General Authority (TGA) of Saudi Arabia will make it mandatory for all parcel deliveries to include a national address starting from January 2026, in a bid to improve logistics and delivery services. This new regulation aims to enhance delivery accuracy and efficiency, benefiting both individuals and businesses.

From January 1, 2026, all parcel shipments within Saudi Arabia will not be accepted by delivery companies unless they include a valid national address. This new regulation is designed to streamline logistics operations across the Kingdom and improve service quality.

The TGA emphasized that both individuals and businesses must register their national addresses before the policy takes effect. The national address will be a key component of the new delivery system, ensuring that shipments reach their correct destinations.

TGA’s Goal: Efficient Parcel Deliveries

The TGA stated that this move aligns with the broader goals of the National Transport and Logistics Strategy. By improving location accuracy, the new regulation is expected to enhance logistics efficiency, support e-commerce growth, improve government services, and enable public entities to provide better services to beneficiaries.

Individuals can register their national address through platforms such as Absher, Tawakkalna, Sehhaty, and SPL. The TGA aims to ensure that all parcels are delivered accurately and efficiently, further boosting Saudi Arabia’s growing logistics and e-commerce sectors.
