Do you need eVisa?

eVisa Information

Citizens of visa-free countries can apply for an electronic visa online. An eVisa to Saudi Arabia is issued for tourist purposes for a stay of no more than 90 days. The visa is valid for one year from the date of issue of the document and allows multiple entries to the country during the validity of the eVisa.

After receiving and processing the application, an eVisa will be sent to you electronically. The eVisa will be electronically assigned to your passport, so there is no need to print the document and show it on arrival, however, we recommend that you keep a copy of the eVisa on your mobile phone.
