Arabic is the official spoken and written language in Saudi Arabia, although English is also widely used and understood.
Employment and business contracts are drawn up in Arabic and it is strongly advisable for expatriates to obtain a full translation before signing anything.
Although expatriates are not expected to learn Arabic, Saudis are usually very appreciative if foreigners demonstrate their knowledge of Arabic phrases, such as greetings. It is also important to learn the different Arabic numerals.
