Saudi Arabia Introduces Instant E-Visa Options for UK, US & Schengen Visa Holders
Traveling to Saudi Arabia has just gotten much easier through the Kingdom’s new instant e-visa option. Any traveler with a UK, US or Schengen visa as well as permanent residents of those countries can apply for an instant e-visa to Saudi Arabia. Using the Ministry of Foreign Affairs’ website, you can fill in the online application and provide any supporting documents to get your visa ready.
This is not the first time that the Kingdom eased the experience of travelers entering the country. Recently, the Kingdom introduced visas on arrival to holders of valid US, UK and Schengen visas as well as permanent residents of those countries. Along with that, they also extended e-visa eligibility to residents of the GCC. They also eased the travel process for pilgrims traveling to Saudi Arabia through Nusuk, an integrated digital platform that offers an easy-to-use planning gateway for their trips to Mecca and Medina for Hajj and Umrah.
All these efforts are helping to increase the accessibility and connectivity of the Kingdom and are boosting efforts to make it easier for visitors from across the world to come and experience all that Saudi Arabia has to offer.
