Digital transformation in the Saudi judiciary means nearly the entire case journey now runs through the Ministry of Justice's Najiz platform: from filing the statement of claim electronically, through electronic notification via text messages, email, and a user's account (now carrying full legal effect), to following hearings, submitting memorials, and filing enforcement requests. This transformation hasn't just sped up case resolution: it's also reduced the procedural manipulation some previously exploited in traditional paper notification.

Through a National Access (Absher) account, the statement of claim is submitted specifying the case's main and sub-classification, adding the parties and their details, and attaching supporting documents (contracts, correspondence, invoices, prior settlement records if any). Accurately completing this data from the start considerably speeds up case acceptance and scheduling the first hearing, while any gap means additional delay to complete requirements.
The Najiz platform is electronically linked with banks, the Ministry of Interior, the Ministry of Commerce, and the Capital Market Authority, facilitating instant data verification and enforcement without needing paper correspondence between bodies, considerably cutting litigation time compared to the previous paper-based system.
