RIYADH: King Salman has directed the extension of the Citizen Account Program, including the continuation of providing additional support to its beneficiaries, until the end of 2026.
The extension was made after a recommendation was submitted by Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman, the Saudi Press Agency reported.
Registration to the program will also remain open and the directive reflects the sustained attention and care that the leadership provides to citizens, SPA added.
The program was first announced in December 2016 and opened for registrations in February 2017. It was established to protect Saudi families from the impact of various economic reforms, which may have caused an additional burden on some segments of society.
