Embassy of the Netherlands in Saudi Arabia

Marhaba! Welcome to the Facebook-page of the Embassy of the Netherlands in Riyadh. We would like to inform our visitors about both the Netherlands and Saudi Arabia, and to give some insight in the work of our embassy. We welcome you to share your ideas.

The diplomatic ties between the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Kingdom of the Netherlands go back to 1869, when the Dutch established a consulate in Jeddah. Nowadays, Saudi Arabia and The Netherlands are still close trading partners. The Embassy pays special attention to the promotion of bilateral trade in five top sectors: Agriculture & Food, Health, Energy, Education and Infrastructure. More information about these sectors can be found on our official website www.holland.org.sa.

Please note that this Facebook page does NOT contain official information on opening hours, telephone numbers, consular services etc. Information of that kind can be found on our website.
