The Balady license in Saudi Arabia is a mandatory municipal license issued through the official Balady platform, overseen by the Ministry of Municipalities and Housing. It authorizes a business to legally operate from a specific location within a Saudi city or municipality.

While a commercial registration (CR) establishes a company legally, the Balady license governs physical operations, including zoning compliance, safety standards, and permitted use of premises. Most retail, professional, industrial, and food-related activities require Balady approval before commencing operations.

The Balady platform was introduced to digitize municipal services, improve transparency, and streamline licensing in line with Saudi Vision 2030. Through the platform, businesses can apply, renew, and manage municipal licenses without visiting municipal offices.
