Tourist visas
Since September 2019, Saudi Arabia has welcomed visitors from all over the world through its e-visa program. Visitors can obtain a multiple-entry visa that is valid for a year and allows them to stay in the country for up to 90 days. The visa is only valid for tourism-related activities and Umrah (excluding Hajj season), and it does not cover other activities such as studying. The visa system is a watershed moment in Saudi Arabia's tourism opening.
Applying for a visa has never been simpler. Members of 49 countries, including the United States, Australia, and the majority of Europe, can apply online for an e-visa at https://visa.visitsaudi.com/ and receive a response within minutes. The tourist e-visa is valid for one year and allows for multiple entries with a maximum stay of 90 days each. If your country of residence is not listed on the e-visa website, please contact the Saudi Arabian embassy for more information.
