How can I get a Saudi IP address?
Also asked as: How do I get a Saudi Arabia IP address for free? · How do I connect to a Saudi Arabia VPN server?
Direct answer
Connect to a VPN server located in Saudi Arabia. Install VPNmine, sign in or skip, and choose Saudi Arabia from the server list; the app opens an encrypted tunnel to VPNmine's Riyadh server and every site you open sees a Saudi address. It is free, with no ads and no card. VPNmine has servers in both Riyadh and Jeddah; pick the nearer.
The steps
Install VPNmine on your desktop, phone, TV or browser, sign in or skip, and pick Saudi Arabia from the server list. The app opens a WireGuard tunnel to the Riyadh server, and every site you open afterwards sees that server's address instead of yours. To confirm, open the IP checker on this site with the tunnel up: it should report Saudi Arabia.
Why Riyadh
VPNmine runs servers in Riyadh, the capital and the centre of the domestic network, and Jeddah, on the Red Sea cable corridor and a few tens of milliseconds closer to Egypt, Europe and India. Pick the nearer; both give a Saudi address, which is most often wanted for banking and government portals from abroad. All Saudi international traffic passes through a national gateway that applies a blocklist, and a tunnel hides its contents from that gateway.
What a Saudi address does and does not do
Sites and services see a visitor from Saudi Arabia, so anything that routes, prices or gates by country treats you as one, and your own network and provider see only encrypted traffic to one VPNmine address. It does not defeat account-based identification, and streaming platforms flag address ranges registered to hosting companies, so treat catalogue access as something to test rather than assume. From Dubai, Doha or Manama expect roughly 15-35 ms of added latency; from Cairo or Mumbai 40-100 ms.
Using one is not an offence, and Saudi businesses rely on them. What the law penalises is accessing content that is unlawful to access, with or without a tunnel, and the Anti-Cyber Crime Law is what applies. The location page has the rest.
