Law of Civil Procedure

If the guardian is other than the father and there is a need to act on behalf of a minor or an absentee in the purchase, sale, division, pledge or merger of a real property, or borrowing for him or disposal, for any reason, of his money that is deposited by the court with the Saudi Arabian Monetary Agency or a branch thereof or with a local bank, or if the person placed under guardianship is a partner in the companies whose articles of incorporation are to be registered or their capitals to be increased, the guardian or trustee may not undertake such actions without the competent court permission. Article 224bis Financial guardianships over a minor shall remain until he completes the age of eighteen, unless the court decides that such guardianship shall remain valid beyond said age. The guardian may, for justified reasons, request the continuation of his financial guardianship over a minor who completes the age of eighteen.
