1Overview

The Saudi Arabia Tourist eVisa is a PDF visa linked to the passport. It allows tourism, events, leisure, visiting family and Umrah outside the Hajj season.

It does not cover Hajj, study, work or business, though light non-paid business such as conferences is said to be common in practice.
