Saudi Arabia details firewood and charcoal fines.

The center’s highest stated fine is tied to one specific use: commercial use of local firewood—for example, in restaurants, kitchens or bakeries—can bring up to SAR 10,000 per cubic meter or part of one. Selling, transporting or storing local firewood carries a separate SAR 5,000 fine per cubic meter or part. Imported firewood has its own rule: selling, transporting or storing it without a license brings SAR 2,000 after a warning on the first instance; licenses are also required to sell imported firewood and charcoal. Firewood and charcoal made from cut trees or tree-pruning and maintenance waste carry a SAR 2,000 fine after a first warning.
