Saudi Arabia Launches National Blockchain Infrastructure for Real Estate Tokenization
Saudi Arabia’s Real Estate Registry has unveiled a national-scale blockchain infrastructure for real estate registration, fractionalization, and transactions.
From Registry to Digital Marketplace
(RER), under the supervision of the (REGA), has unveiled a national‑scale blockchain infrastructure dedicated to real estate registration, fractionalization, and marketplace integration. Officials say the system will create a transparent, liquid, and globally investable real estate ecosystem.
Powered by asset tokenization platform, the new infrastructure integrates blockchain‑based title management, automated valuation models (AVMs), and fractional ownership capabilities. According to a media statement, the system is built on a hybrid architecture combining RER’s registry services with blockchain orchestration and smart‑contract layers.
It supports end‑to‑end digital transactions — from listing and due diligence to ownership transfer and settlement. Inspire for Solutions Development is leading the marketplace development.
The roadmap details a phased approach to digitizing the real estate sector, beginning with the launch of a national tokenized marketplace designed for the buying, selling, and fractional investment of property. Phase Two of this initiative will focus on deploying an open application programming interface (API) framework. This framework is intended to empower PropTech companies, banks, and independent developers to build innovative, value-added services, such as tokenized lending and cross-border property transactions.
Adam Popat, CEO of Settlemint, emphasized the significance of the launch: “This is not a proof‑of‑concept — it is a national digital market infrastructure, which is in operation. Saudi Arabia is now at the forefront of a global movement redefining how nations manage, invest, and transact in real‑world assets. The Kingdom’s leadership has built not just technology, but trust — the essential foundation for any programmable economy.”
The system incorporates international interoperability standards, including W3C Verifiable Credentials and eIDAS 2.0, alongside Shariah‑compliant asset structures. REGA will oversee supervisory and data‑governance standards, ensuring blockchain transparency is balanced with sovereign regulation to reinforce investor confidence.
