The first ambassador of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia to the Kingdom of Belgium was appointed in 1963, cementing over fifty years of fruitful relations between the two countries.

The present ambassador Abdulrahman Bin Suleiman Alahmed took up his post in Brussels in February 2014, also taking on the role of Head of the Saudi Delegation to the European Union. Ever since the mission to the EU was established, we have committed ourselves to strengthening our political, economic and cultural ties.
