Visa Requirements

This is the official link from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, KSA.

If it is too confusing, you may go to the on-line procedural information on the visa requirement from Mr. "Star-Spangled-Banner":

Business Visit Visa
Diplomatic And Official Visa
Employment Visa
Extension of Exit/Re-Entry Visa
Family Visit Visa
Residence Visa
Student Visa
Transit Visa
Hajj Visa
Umrah Visa


To the best of my knowledge, the Saudi authority has started using an e-visa system beginning from 1.1.1429H this year.

Will update later on the actual visa processing for employment (from IDB perspective).

Others are welcome to add on.
