The law

Is using a VPN legal in Saudi Arabia?

Saudi Arabia's Anti-Cyber Crime Law of 2007 does not mention VPNs, and we found no official Saudi source that bans VPNs as such. Businesses and residents use them every day for work and privacy.

What the law punishes is what you do: accessing, sending or storing content that harms public order, religious values or public morals, fraud, hacking and similar crimes. A VPN does not make those legal.

  • Use a VPN for privacy, public Wi-Fi, work networks and travel.
  • Do not use it to reach content the regulator has blocked, or for anything illegal.
  • If a site is blocked by mistake, the regulator (CST) accepts unblock requests.
Read our legal guide

A VPN (virtual private network) encrypts your connection and routes it through a server in another place. In Saudi Arabia people use one for privacy on public Wi-Fi, for work networks and for travel; people abroad use one with a Saudi server to get a Saudi IP address. This guide compares the services that document what they do: where their servers are, whether they have a free plan, how many devices they allow, how long their refund lasts and who audited them.

VPNKSA is not a VPN provider and we are not paid for rankings. The VPN links on this site carry no affiliate codes. We have not run our own speed tests, so we rank on documented features, and we say where a provider leaves something out.

VPN for Android

On Android, install a VPN only from Google Play or the provider’s own site, then turn on Always-on VPN in Android’s settings so no app can connect outside the tunnel. Our VPN for Android guide ranks the apps with official download links.

VPN for iPhone / iPad

On iPhone and iPad, VPN apps come from the App Store and appear as a switch in Settings once installed. The VPN for iPhone guide compares them, with App Store links, and our step-by-step guide shows the setup.

VPN for Windows

Download a Windows VPN only from the provider’s own site; “free download for PC” pages are a common way to spread malware. The VPN for Windows guide links to each official download and the kill switch to turn on first.

VPN for MacOS

On a Mac you install from the Mac App Store or the provider’s site, and macOS asks once to allow the VPN configuration. See VPN for MacOS for the apps and the minimum macOS versions.

Is a VPN legal in Saudi Arabia?

Saudi Arabia’s Anti-Cyber Crime Law of 2007 does not mention VPNs, and we found no official Saudi source that bans them. Using a VPN to reach blocked content or to commit a crime is still punishable. Read Is VPN Allowed in Saudi Arabia? for the details.

How we compare VPNs

  • Saudi server. Whether the provider lists a Saudi Arabia location, and whether it is virtual (a Saudi IP address on a server in another country).
  • Restrictive networks. Whether the app has obfuscation, which disguises VPN traffic on networks that block or slow it.
  • Audits. Whether an independent firm checked the no-logs claim, and when.
  • Terms. Free plan, trial, number of devices and the refund window, from the provider’s own pages.

Questions people ask about VPNs in Saudi Arabia

What is the best VPN for Saudi Arabia?

On documented features, NordVPN, Surfshark and Proton VPN lead: all three have obfuscation for restrictive networks, independent no-logs audits and a 30-day refund. If you need a Saudi IP address, choose Surfshark, Private Internet Access, ExpressVPN, CyberGhost or a paid Proton VPN plan.

Is a VPN legal in Saudi Arabia?

The Anti-Cyber Crime Law does not mention VPNs, and we found no official Saudi source that bans them. Using a VPN to reach blocked content or to commit a crime is a different matter, and the law's penalties still apply.

This is not legal advice. See our legal guide for the articles of the law.

Which VPN has a Saudi Arabia server?

Surfshark, ExpressVPN, Private Internet Access, CyberGhost and Proton VPN (paid plans) list a Saudi Arabia location. All of them are virtual: the Saudi IP address comes from a server in another country, such as Dubai or London. NordVPN, Windscribe, Mullvad, TunnelBear and PrivateVPN have no Saudi location.

Is there a good free VPN?

Proton VPN Free has no data limit and no ads, but only one device and no choice of country. Windscribe gives 10 GB a month with a confirmed email, and TunnelBear 2 GB. None of the free plans include a Saudi server.

Will a VPN slow down my internet?

A little: your traffic travels to the VPN server and back. Pick a server close to you, such as the UAE, Bahrain or Qatar from Saudi Arabia, and a modern protocol like WireGuard where the app offers it.

Is VPNKSA a VPN service?

No. VPNKSA is a guide. We do not sell a VPN, and the links to VPN services carry no affiliate codes.
