Issued by Ministry of Investment (misa.gov.sa)

If a person makes, in good faith, structures or plants on a land owned by another person using his own materials, he may remove such structures or plants if the removal does not cause damage to the land; if the removal causes damage to the land or if the person who makes the structures or plants does not demand their removal, the owner may choose either to pay the value of the materials and labor fees or an amount equal to the amount of appreciation of the land due to such structures or plants. If the value of the structures or plants is too high for the landowner to pay, he may demand transfer of ownership of the land to the person who made the structures or plants against a fair compensation.
