The Saudi Census 2022 aims to gather data about the population of Saudi Arabia. This data would then be analyzed and made available to government agencies.
Therefore, the Saudi Census will help the authorities plan effective policy and decision-making.
Moreover, all Saudi residents must participate in the census. Anyone older than 15 years can fill out the form. You can participate through:
- Self-counting
- Self-enumeration stations
- Field counting
The Saudi government maintains strict checks on the data you enter. Therefore, providing false information or refusing to provide data can land you heavy fines.
