What do I need to know before moving to Jeddah?

"Expatriates moving to Jeddah should be aware that the city is subject to the laws and customs of Saudi Arabia, which are based on Islamic principles. It is important to be aware of the dress code, which requires women to cover their hair and body in public, and for both men and women to dress modestly. Expats should also be aware that alcohol and pork products are strictly prohibited in the country. Additionally, it is important to be aware of the local customs and etiquette, such as avoiding public displays of affection and refraining from discussing religion or politics. Finally, expats should be aware that the summer months in Jeddah can be extremely hot and humid," explained one expat living in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.
