Children of Saudi women married to foreigners need permanent residence in Saudi Arabia.

Some women members of the Shura Council have demanded that the Saudi women be granted permanent residency in Saudi Arabia for the children of Saudi women who are married to foreigners.

Shura Council members have asked the Interior Ministry to amend the Saudi Citizenship Act to grant permanent residency for Saudi women who are married to foreigners without any fee and lengthy procedures, an Arab newspaper published in Saudi has reported.

The Shura Council members, Latifa al-Shalan, Faisal al-Fadel, Lina Almeina, Noura al-Muzid and Huda al-Holaisi, made the suggestion. The Shura Council members made the suggestion at a time when the Ministry of Justice had revealed that the trend of foreign men marrying Saudi women was increasing.

As the percentage of Saudi women married to non-Saudis is growing, they need to be able to cope with social and cultural changes to ensure stability and security for their children.These children are no longer subject to a sponsorship system. Current law requires another sponsor if their mother dies.They face a variety of problems in the absence of citizenship.
