Start with the passport you plan to use

A Saudi tourist eVisa application starts with the traveller, the passport and the reason for the visit. If you live in the UAE, write down your passport nationality and the type of visit you are planning. Check the official Saudi tourist eVisa portal at https://visa.visitsaudi.com/ for its current nationality list and application instructions. If the route shown there does not fit your circumstances, use the official KSA Visa platform at https://ksavisa.sa/ to check what other options may apply before paying anyone.

Check your plans before paying

Keep the dates you want to travel separate from the visa dates you are eventually issued. If you are going with other people, check each traveller’s details separately. One person’s passport or application result does not answer the same question for everybody in the group. If you need to book accommodation before the visa decision, look at the cancellation deadline and save a copy of the booking terms.

Match the information to the passport

Read the passport number and name from the document you will carry. Compare those details again before submission. Save the application reference, confirmation message and the official support link. If the issued details differ from your passport, contact the issuing channel before travelling and ask what step applies to your case.
