According to Saudi Press Agency, as part of its efforts to ensure an organized media environment, protect the rights of professionals, and curb the impersonation of media personnel, the authority stated it will begin taking legal action against unregistered practitioners. This measure aligns with its broader initiative to enhance governance in the media sector, improve its efficiency, and protect the public from misleading and unethical media practices.

It also clarified that continuing to practice media work after the expiration of a professional license without renewal constitutes a clear violation subject to the prescribed penalties.
