very strict controle procedures on electronic devices now applies to all

passengers entering or exiting Saudi Arabia.

Please be advised that all Airports in Saudi Arabia have a new rule regarding,

leaving and arriving Overseas workers carrying electronic devices. This has

not been published to the public, but the airport authorities have already

implemented the new rule. Please advice all workers who are traveling to

K.S.A.

- All Electronic devices will be submitted for check up before immigration

section.

Devices includes Cellular phones with cameras and memory card, flash disks,

external hard drive,

Laptops/notebooks/PC, ipod, itouch, MP3, players with memory cards.

- A special USB device will be inserted to the electronic devices that the

personnel are carrying. This

special device can scan all videos and pictures, jpg, bmp,avi, etc.

contents of your laptop/cellphones,

and will be recorded to their main computer.

- All devices with nude pictures in it will be confiscated immediately.

There will be no fines, and

refusal but the person will be sent to the jail and deportation and black

在这个日期之后有我认识的人从沙特出境，带着笔记本，但没告诉我有特殊的检查。

我们公司在全球有几十个工厂，邮件是整个business unit转发的。不应该是假的。
