RIYADH: Saudi Arabia has approved a new high-technology e-visa facility for those applying to secure visit and transit visas to the Kingdom. The facility, which was developed by the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs, will allow applicants to obtain a visa via a quick response (QR) code. This will replace the previous procedure of issuing a visa sticker on passports.
The new facility is part of the Kingdom's efforts to digitize its consular services and improve the quality of service for visa seekers. It is also part of Saudi Arabia's Vision 2030, which aims to make the Kingdom a more attractive destination for tourists and investors.
The new e-visa facility is currently being implemented in a pilot phase at Saudi missions in India, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, Egypt, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and the Philippines. It is expected to be rolled out to other countries in the coming months.
To apply for an e-visa, applicants can visit the Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs website. They will need to provide their passport information, travel dates, and other required documentation. Once their application is approved, they will receive a QR code that they can scan to enter the Kingdom.
The new e-visa facility is a significant step forward for Saudi Arabia's efforts to improve its visa processing system. It is expected to make it easier and more convenient for people to obtain a visa to visit the Kingdom.
In addition to the e-visa facility, Saudi Arabia has also introduced a number of other measures to make it easier for people to visit the Kingdom. These include the introduction of a tourist visa, which allows people to visit the Kingdom for up to 90 days without a sponsor.
Saudi Arabia is a country with a rich history and culture. It is home to a number of world-famous tourist destinations, including the cities of Mecca and Medina. The Kingdom is also home to a number of natural wonders, including the Red Sea and the desert.
The new e-visa facility and other measures to make it easier for people to visit Saudi Arabia are part of the Kingdom's efforts to diversify its economy and attract more foreign visitors.
