Marble Village Saudi Arabia View

We provide a streamlined process to get your Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa. Let's dive into the process and requirements below.

What is the Saudi Arabia eVisa?

Saudi Arabia recently introduced an electronic visa system, also known as the Saudi e-Visa or Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa.

This means that you can apply 100% online without visiting a Saudi Embassy or Consulate, for your convenience.

What can you do with the Saudi Arabia eVisa?

With the Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa, you can:

  • Explore the country for tourism

  • Visit religious sites, such as the Holy City of Mecca (Muslim visa holders only) and the Prophet's Mosque in Medina

  • Perform Umrah (Muslim visa holders only - outside Hajj season)

What can you not do with the Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa?

With the Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa, there are certain activities that you are not allowed to engage in. These include:

  • Perform Hajj or Umrah during Hajj season

  • Undertake any form of work or employment

  • Study

  • Do business or establish a business

  • Participate in political rallies or demonstrations

  • Preach or promote any religion other than Islam

  • Undertake any form of journalism or media-related activities without proper authorization

Who is eligible for the Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa?

The Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa is available to citizens of more than 50 countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, Canada, Australia, Germany, South Korea, Japan, Iceland, Ireland, and Turkey.

This is just a small selection of the many eligible countries. If you don’t see your country listed here, use our visa checker to check if you require this visa or another one.

Visa exempt: Who doesn't need a Saudi eVisa?

Citizens of Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) countries: Bahrain, Kuwait, Oman, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates (UAE) can travel to Saudi Arabia without a visa.

It is important to note that these exemptions are subject to change.

Nationals from other countries may require another type of visa or ETA for Saudi Arabia.

Do minors require a Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa?

Minors require their own Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa if they're from an eligible country.

When applying for a visa for a minor, legal guardians or parents must provide additional documents such as a copy of the minor's birth certificate, consent letter from both parents or legal guardians, and proof of the minor's relationship to the accompanying adult.

How long is the Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa valid?

There are two types of eVisas with different durations:

  • Single-entry: Valid for three months from the date of issuance and allows you to stay in the country for up to 90 days.

  • Multiple-entry: Valid for one year from the date of issuance and allows you to stay in the country for up to 90 days in Total.

Currently, we only offer the multiple-entry visa.

Can I extend my Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa?

No, as Saudi Arabia does not offer tourist eVisa extensions. You must leave Saudi Arabia before your visa expires to avoid fines and issues with traveling to the country in the future.

Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa: Required documents

Before applying for a Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa, make sure to gather the following documents:

  • Valid passport: Your passport must have a minimum validity of six months beyond your planned arrival date and at least two blank pages for visa stamping

  • Passport-size photo: Recently taken

  • For minors and children: Additional documents may be required, such as a birth certificate

Please note that the Saudi Arabian authorities may request additional documents or information during the visa application process if necessary. We’ll contact you by email if this is the case.

Costs and processing times of the Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa

The costs and processing times are divided into two parts:

  • Government processing: The cost of the eVisa depends on your nationality. The processing time depends on the workload of the embassy in your country, but usually takes a couple of days.

  • iVisa processing: We offer three processing options for how quickly you want us to check and submit your documentation to the government, each with its own fee. Keep in mind, this is additional to the government visa fee and processing time.

Do I need a Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa if I’m transiting through Saudi Arabia?

If you are transiting through Saudi Arabia, and plan to stay in the airport transit area, you generally don’t need a Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa.

If you plan to enter the country during your layover, apply for the Saudi Arabia Air Transit Visa instead.

Can I use the Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa to perform Hajj?

No, you can’t perform Hajj using a Tourist eVisa. To complete a Hajj pilgrimage, you require a Hajj Visa, which can be obtained from a travel agency approved by the Saudi Government.
