Saudi Arabia Expands eVisa Eligibility to 66 Nations for 2026
Saudi Arabia has launched an updated eVisa system for 66 nations, permitting multiple entries and 90-day stays from 2026.
The new electronic visa portal streamlines the entry process by replacing traditional embassy applications with a direct online application and fee payment. This one-year, multiple-entry document allows travellers from the 66 specified countries to stay for up to 90 days per visit. The permit is valid for leisure, family visits, and Umrah pilgrimages, but explicitly excludes the annual Hajj pilgrimage and academic study. Eligible countries span North America, Europe, Asia, Africa, and Oceania, including major tourism markets like the United States, United Kingdom, and Australia.
