Updated on Feb 16, 2024

Saudi Arabia is a magnet for visitors eager to delve into its historical sites, breathtaking landscapes, and vibrant cultural scenes. Before you stroll through the bustling souks of Riyadh, take in the tranquility of the Asir National Park, or savor the rich taste of traditional Saudi kabsa, you'll likely need a visa to enter the country.

Navigating the visa application process can seem like an uphill task, but our aim is to streamline it for you. Our team pays close attention to every detail of your application to ensure it's complete and correct.

We're here to manage the visa logistics, so you can look forward to your trip to Saudi Arabia with excitement and peace of mind.

Do I need a Saudi Arabia Visa?

The Saudi Tourist Visa serves as an official document that permits international travelers to enter Saudi Arabia for leisure and other non-work activities. This visa is valid for one year and allows multiple entries, with each stay of up to 90 days in Total, catering specifically to tourism and not to other pursuits like education.

Presently, there are 63 countries whose citizens can apply for a Saudi Tourist eVisa. Travelers who are not from these countries will have to go through the traditional route of obtaining a visa via a Saudi embassy or consulate. You can find out which visa you need by using our handy Visa Checker Tool.

For Muslim visitors looking to perform Umrah, the Saudi Tourist Visa is also an option for entry into Makkah. However, the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia also offers an Umrah Visa specifically for this purpose, which caters to the needs of pilgrims.

What is a Hajj Visa?

Hajj, an annual event in Mecca, stands as a deeply significant ritual for Muslims globally. It represents the completion of one of the Five Pillars of Islam and sees millions of believers heading to the holy city each year. To embark on this profound journey, pilgrims need a specific type of visa known as the Hajj visa.

This particular visa is a requirement set by the Saudi Arabian authorities to manage the entry of those attending the Hajj during its specific season each year.

Unlike a tourist or Umrah visa, the Hajj visa comes with a unique set of criteria and steps to follow. These are put in place by the Saudi government to manage the influx of pilgrims smoothly and to maintain safety, considering the vast numbers arriving from across the globe.
