Dream - Saudi Arabia is preparing to open its first alcohol store in the capital city of Riyadh. The alcohol store is specifically intended for non-Muslim foreign diplomats. This will be the first liquor store to open in over 70 years.
This drink store is located in the diplomatic complex area in the capital city, so only diplomats and people with special access can go to the store.
It is not clear whether this store is exclusively for foreign diplomats or if expatriates and other foreigners can also access the store. A source confirms that access to this alcohol store is very strict. Customers must first register through a mobile application in order to obtain a purchasing permit code for alcohol from the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
In addition, the application also limits the quota of drinks that customers can purchase every month. A source who knows about the plan said that the store is expected to be opened in the coming weeks.
So far, there has been no official statement from the government regarding the plan to open this liquor store. However, Saudi Arabia, through the International Communication Center (ICC), confirmed that the government has implemented new restrictions on the import of alcohol in diplomatic shipments.

The statement does not discuss plans for storing alcoholic beverages but states that the new framework respects international diplomatic conventions.
If officially opened, this store will become a historical landmark as the first liquor store in Saudi Arabia. The ban has been in place since 1952, after one of the sons of King Abdulaziz, while intoxicated, shot and killed a British diplomat. As a country that implements Islamic Sharia law, Saudi Arabia has strict laws that prohibit the circulation and consumption of alcoholic beverages. This law also applies to foreign residents and expatriates living in the country.
"During this time, in Saudi Arabia, alcohol has been limitedly available only through diplomatic letters or in the black market. This step further proves that Saudi Arabia is truly making efforts to make the Islamic kingdom more open. Source: BBC"
