More than 2,750 inspections were carried out in cities such as Jeddah, Taif, Asir, and Al-Baha, resulting in the identification of 170 violations. These included offering services without proper licensing and non-compliance with official tourism standards.

The Ministry emphasized the importance of strict adherence to tourism laws by all service providers, including travel agencies, tourism consultancies, and event organizers, to uphold the quality and credibility of the tourism experience in the Kingdom.

Visitors are encouraged to report any violations by contacting the unified call center at 930.
