Earlier this month, Saudi Arabia announced visas on arrival for people who have US, UK or Schengen visas (provided they’ve used them at least once) and also announced eVisas for GCC residents. The move has undoubtedly made Saudi Arabia more accessible to tourists.
As with anything new, there are a lot of questions around the eVisas for GCC residents, so we’ll clear them all up here.
As for the cost, there’s a $10 upfront payment that has to be paid as soon as you’re done accepting the terms and conditions on the MOFA website.
