How this rule was checked

On 31 Oct 2026 we checked this rule against the official sources that govern entry to Saudi Arabia, chiefly Saudi Press Agency (official news agency of Saudi Arabia). Two independent checks reached the same result.

Before the check, public visa data (as of 17 Feb 2026) said: visa on arrival, up to 90 days. The official source shows: eVisa, and that is what this page shows.

See this check in the log of checks and changes, and how verification works in the methodology.

Plan your trip

Before you travel

This page answers whether you need a visa and how long you can stay on a short tourist visit. It does not cover passport validity, other documents or permission to work. Entry rules change, sometimes without notice, and border officials make the final decision: confirm the requirements for your trip with the official immigration website or embassy of Saudi Arabia.
