Saudi Arabia is tightening rules against banned and counterfeit pesticides. A new draft regulation suggests jail terms up to five years and fines of SR10 million. Authorities will have strong powers to punish offenders and protect public health, agriculture, and the environment. The regulation targets anyone manufacturing or importing banned pesticides. Violators could face either jail, heavy fines, or both. The Public Prosecution will investigate and take cases to court. Repeat offenders can get penalties doubled. Minor violations will first get warnings if they cause no serious harm. Officials may give time to fix the issue before penalties kick in. The Saudi Food and Drug Authority (SFDA) will lead on cases related to health-impacting pesticides. It will review violations, impose penalties, and get approvals for actions. The Ministry of Environment, Water, and Agriculture can demand violators remove the cause of the breach. If offences repeat within three years, fines can double. Violating pesticides may be destroyed by certified firms, sent back to origin countries, with all costs paid by the violator. More than fines, facilities can be closed temporarily for up to six months or permanently in serious cases. Penalized parties may appeal in the Administrative Court. These strict measures aim to stop illegal pesticides and keep Saudi Arabia’s environment and people safe.
