Listing & Verification Standards
As the trusted directory of Saudi Arabia's events, we commit to our visitors that every listed event is real, confirmed, and open for registration. Our audience of decision-makers arrives at event pages intending to attend, sponsor, and exhibit, which makes data accuracy and a working registration path a fundamental condition for staying in the directory.
1Event listing requirements
An event is listed once the mandatory fields below are complete; incomplete submissions remain in draft until they are. The platform reserves the right to edit titles and descriptions to match its editorial style without altering the substance.
| Field | Requirement | |
|---|---|---|
| Event name | In Arabic and English, using the current edition's name and year | Required |
| Dates | Start and end dates confirmed from the official website | Required |
| Times | Actual opening and closing times as announced by the organizer, with no estimated values | Required |
| Registration link | The direct registration page itself, live and working, taking the visitor straight to registration rather than a homepage | Required |
| Venue | Hall or venue name and city, with a Google Maps link | Required (in-person) |
| Organizer | An organizer profile defined on the platform per the verification section | Required |
| Event type | Conference, expo, summit, workshop, or forum | Required |
| Description | A substantive Arabic description of 300+ characters | Required |
| Fees | Free or paid with amount and currency, as officially announced | Required |
| Official website | The event's domain or the organizer's official page | Required |
| Speakers | Speakers page link for conferences and summits; expos exempt | Recommended |
| Expected attendance | A figure announced by the organizer | Recommended |
| Social accounts | The event's official social media accounts | Recommended |
2Visual asset specifications
The following specifications ensure consistent quality across the site, newsletters, and app; non-conforming assets are rejected and replacements requested.

The thumbnail is generated automatically from the banner, so keep key elements centered.

- Up to 2 MB
- Minimal text inside the image
- Square ratio
- PNG, SVG, or WebP
- Transparent background

- Plus a short bio
3Organizer verification
Directory trust is built on organizer pages, so an organizer's full page, with its website and links, is activated exclusively after the complete verification package is submitted and checked. Until then the page remains minimal, limited to the name and event list.
| Package item | Detail | |
|---|---|---|
| Legal name | As it appears in the commercial registration or license | |
| Official website | The organization's working domain | |
| Official email | An address on the organization's own domain; free providers are rejected | |
| Contact person | Name and title of the person responsible for Saudi events | |
| Profile | 500+ characters in Arabic about the organization and its activity | |
| Logo | Per the specifications in section two | |
| Social accounts | Two or more official accounts |
- The organizer submits the complete package to [email protected] or via the contact form.
- We send a verification message from our official address to the submitted email on the organization's domain.
- A reply from that same address confirms the organization owns the data.
- The full page goes live with a Verified badge, and the email becomes the channel receiving interest messages for its events.
4Communication channel & obligations
Every event page carries a contact form receiving messages from prospective attendees, exhibitors, sponsors, and speakers. These are forwarded automatically to the organizer's verified email with the sender's full details, enabling a direct reply with no intermediary. The organizer commits to keeping the verified address active, as repeated bounces lead to withdrawal of verification, and we expect a reply to official platform correspondence within fourteen days, particularly regarding data corrections or registration status. Organizers may stop receiving interest messages at any time via the opt-out link in every message, without affecting the listing of their compliant events.
5Ongoing compliance
Listed events undergo periodic audits with recorded results: near-term events are rechecked weekly and others monthly, against the following criteria:
| Criterion | Acceptable threshold | On violation |
|---|---|---|
| Registration path | Link is live and leads to the correct event's registration | Warning, then suspension after 14 days |
| Registration opening | Open at least 30 days before the event | Warning |
| Current-edition content | Official page updated to the current edition, clear of previous editions' content | Warning |
| Date & venue accuracy | Matches the official website; changes must be reported | Suspension until confirmed |
| Responsiveness | Reply within 14 days to correction requests | Suspension |
Suspension is a transparent measure that keeps the event page visible, preserving the visitor's right to know, while the registration button is replaced by a 'Registration currently unavailable' notice with the last-checked date, and the event is withdrawn from the homepage, newsletters, and recommendations until the cause is resolved. A violation persisting ninety days, or recurring, ends the listing and withdraws the organizer's verification.
6Application & review
These standards apply to new listings immediately upon publication, and to existing events gradually through periodic audit rounds with organizers notified of what needs completing. An organizer may request a review of any measure via [email protected], stating what has been corrected; we re-examine and reply within business days. The platform reserves the right to update these standards, with the version date at the top of this page as the authoritative reference.
